COLIC    CURC 


For  the  positive  cure  of  Horse  Colu:  and  for  use  in 
the  treatment  of  Bowel  Troubles,  Azoturia,  Stiffs, 
Paralysis  of  Hind  Quarters,  Black  Water,  Stoppage,

Inflammation,  Bloody  Flux,  Strangury,  Arsenical

Calves,  Etc.,  Etc. 


NEVER  FAILS  TO  GIVE  SATISFACTION 

Since  placing  my  Colic  Cure  on  the  market,  many  years  ago,  in  a  manner 
originated  and  adopted  by  myself,  two  bottles  in  a  case,  numbered  I  and  2, 
nearly  all  of  the  venders  of  so-called  veterinary  medicines  and  many  un- 
scrupulous imitators  have  put  up  various  concoctions,  two  bottles  in  a  case, 
numbering  them  I  and  2,  making  them  appear  as  much  like  Daniels'  as  they 
dare,  giving  them  some  such  catch  name  as  "Quick  Cure,"  "Sure  Cure," 
"Certain  Cure,"  "Speedy  Cure,"  intending  to  deceive  the  public  by  their  close 
resemblance  to  Dr.  Daniels'  Colic  Cure.  Remember  each  and  every  one  of 
them  are  fraudulent  imitators.  Many  of  the  so-called  No.  i  and  2  are  actu- 
ally dangerous  to  life,  while  others  leave  behind  a  lingering  weakness,  which 
subjects  the  animal  to  repeated  attacks  of  this  dangerous  disease  which  soon 
becomes  chronic  in  their  effect,  later  resulting  in  the  loss  of  a  valuable  horse. 

Remember  that  colic  is  regarded  by  veterinarians  as  by  far  the  most  dan- 
gerous of  the  non-contagious  diseases  that  the  horse  is  heir  to ;  in  fact  the 
mortality  from  this  cause  alone  is  probably  greater  than  from  all  other  non- 
contagious diseases  combined.  It  is  known  among  stockmen  and  veteri- 
narians, in  different  parts  of  the  world,  by  many  and  various  names ;  such 
as  bellyache,  inflammation,  wind,  bots,  bloat,  stoppage  of  water,  spasms,  etc. 
The  veterinarian  recognizes  but  two  kinds :   the  spasmodic  and  flatulent. 

Statistics  of  live  stock  insurance  companies,  show  that  where  one  horse 
is  burned  to  death  by  fire,  twenty-seven  die  from  colic.  How  inconsistent 
and  unbusinesslike  it  is  to  insure  your  stock  against  fire,  at  great  expense, 
and  not  prepare  to  ward  off  and  cure  this  monster,  which  is  twenty-seven 
times  more  fatal,  to  say  nothing  of  the  slight  attacks  which  are  of  every- 
day occurrence,  when  it  can  be  done  at  such  a  trifling  cost. 

Horse  Colic. —  Every  horse  owner  dreads  that  most  dangerous  disease,  colic, 
in  the  horse. 

I  offer  a  remedy  at  once  certain  to  cure,  and  harmless  in  its  effects; 
cheaper,  quicker,  safer  and  mere  convenient  to  administer,  than  any  other 
similar  remedy  on  earth. 

So  firmly  convinced  am  I  of  the  value  of  my  Colic  Cure  in  treating  Colic, 
I  warrant  every  package.

My  Warrant. — Five  to  ten  cents'  worth  of  my  Colic  Cure  will,  in  from  ten 
to  fifty  minutes,  cure  any  case  of  horse  colic,  either  spasmodic  or  flatulent, 
or  /  zvill  refund  your  money.  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  is  put  up  two  bottles  in  a 
case,  numbered  i  and  2,  with  doser,  which  takes  up  just  a  dose  (30  drops), 
which  should  be  instantly  placed  on  the  tongue,  well  back  in  the  mouth.  It  is 
worth  one  hundred  dollars  a  package,  as  it  never  fails;  and  one  package  cures 
eight  to  twelve  cases  ;  and  is  so  simple  that  a  woman  or  child  can  give  it  to 
a  horse.  It  is  perfectly  safe,  and  never  makes  the  horse  sick  and  will  never 
fail  to  effect  a  cure  if  directions  are  followed.  Money  refunded  if  not  satis- 
fied.    Be  sure  none  is  left  in  the  doser ;  give  the  full  dose. 

In  order  to  protect  my  customers  and  the  public  from  imitators,  on  Jan.  1,  1906,  I  adopted 
for  my  Colic  Cure,  a  new  style  patented  cardboard  box  or  case,  with  a  folding  hinge  top,  the 
entire  front  of  the  case  being  covered  with  a  colored  lithograph  label  which  seals  the  box. 
This  box  is  patented  and  imitators  will  be  prosecuted  to  the  extent  of  the  law. 

Horse  Colic  is  Caused  by  a  great  variety  of  conditions.  The  most  com- 
mon being  indigestion,  change  of  feed  or  water,  drinking  cold  water  on  an 
empty  stomach  when  tired  or  exhausted,  constipation,  ulcers,  worms,  ex- 
posure, neglect,  etc.  Many  cases  are  brought  on  by  the  horse  taking  a  sud- 
den chill  by  standing  in  a  draft  when  heated;  also  by  over  feeding,  which 
causes  an  unusual  amount  of  gas  to  accumulate ;  neglect  of  the  usual  evacua- 
tion, such  as  going  a  long  time  without  urinating.     All  of  the  above,  as  well 

as  many  other  causes,  or  a  combination 
of  them,  will  bring  on   colic. 

Prevalent  in  cold  weather  from  neg- 
lect  and   exposure. 

Symptoms      of      Spasmodic      Colic. — 
Comes    on   suddenly ;   abdominal  pains ; 
distended  bowels   relieved   by  pressure; 
pulse  nearly  natural ;  legs  and  ears  gen- 
erally  warm ;    never    preceded   and    sel- 
dom   followed    by   fever ;    small    quanti- 
ties   of    urine    at    intervals ;    looks    at 
__~a&         flanks  ;   paws  the  floor  ;   kicks  at.  belly ; 
■:^^^^mM^^^^^^^^^^^        lies  down,  rolls,  lies  still,  is  easier,  gets 
Indications  of  Spasmodic  Colic  up    at    the    termination    of    each   parox- 

ysm, which  usually  follows  in  quick  succession;   the  difficulty  to  urinate  is 
often  taken  to   indicate  bladder  or  kidney  trouble— which  it  is   NOT. 

Treatment  of  Spasmodic  Colic. — 
Give  at  once  30  drops  of  Dr.  Daniels' 
No.  1  Colic  Cure  (syringe  full  is  a 
dose)  as  far  back  on  the  tongue  as 
possible,  in  ten  minutes  give  the 
same  size  dose  of  No.  2  Colic  Cure, 
then  continue  giving  the  doses,  first 
one  and  then  the  other,  about  ten 
minutes  apart;  in  severe  cases,  or  if 
you  have  delayed  treatment,  or 
could  not  obtain  my  Colic  Cure  at  the 
beginning,   you    can   give   two   doses 

Spasmodic  Colic 


t^Tte  AfClJANlELS  MEDICDflSS^I 


each  of  the  drops,  afterwards  giving  30  drop  doses  once  in  five  to  ten  minutes. 
Usually  four  to  eight  doses  will  cure  a  bad  case  of  colic.  {Be  sure  and  give 
the  full  doses  of  No.  1  and  No.  2  as  directed,  well  back  in  the  mouth  at  the 
root  of  the  tongue.)  '  Keep  everything  quiet  as  possible  and  don't  get  ex- 
cited. Allow  the  horse  to  keep  any 
position  he  likes.  When  possible 
give  injections  of  warm  soapy 
water  (lukewarm,  3  to  6  quarts  at  a 
time).  Many  times  he  will  be  found 
to  be  so  constipated  that  the  gas 
cannot  work  off  naturally.  If  not 
possible  to  give  injections,  introduce 
the  hand,  well  greased,  into  the  rec- 
tum, removing  all  excrement  possi- 
ble. Don't  be  induced  to  try  other 
medicines.     My   Colic  Cure  will  do 


reasonable  time. 


Last  Stage  of  Spasmodic  Colic 

the  work,  it  never  fails,  if  given  in  any 

Flatulent    Colic,    Symptoms    of.— 

Comes  on  slowly;  horse  appears 
dull,  paws  slightly;  belly  enlarged, 
with  drum-like  sound  when  hit 
with  the  hand;  pains  continuous; 
legs  tremble;  respiration  like  sigh- 
ing; perspires  profusely;  breathes 
with  difficulty;  may  or  may  not  lie 
down;    staggers   from   side  to  side. 


Indications  of  Flatulent  Colic 

Flatulent  Colic.  Treatment.— I  still 
continue  my  simple  method  in  treating 
colic.  But  as  Flatulent  or  wind  colic 
is  more  fatal  than  spasmodic,  prompt 
and  energetic  treatment  is  necessary. 
Give  at  once  30  drop  doses  of  Daniels' 
Colic  Cure  No.  1.  In  five  minutes  give 
same  dose  of  No.  2  Colic  Cure,  repeat- 
ing every  ten  minutes,  first  one  and 
then  the  other,  well  back  in  the  mouth 
at  the  root  of  the  tongue  until  relieved. 
Give  at  first-  symptom  one  of  Dr. 
Daniels'  handy  and  ever  ready  Physic  Balls.  In  extreme  cases,  if  possible 
to  do  so,  wring  out  blankets  in  solution  of  hot  Liniment  Powder  (Daniels') 
or  even  hot  water,  and  bind  about  the  bowels,  covering  with  a  dry  blanket 
to  keep  hot.  Renew  every  ten  minutes ;  this  is  often  of  assistance  in  reliev- 
ing pain.  Give  injections  of  lukewarm  soapy  water  every  half  hour.  Apply 
freely  Daniels'  Liniment  (Oster-Cocus)  to  the  loins.  When  after  a  drive, 
or  from  unknown  reasons  your  horse  is  suddenly  taken  siek   (perhaps  from

cold,  water,  exposure,  change  of  feed,  etc.),  looks  at  his  sides,  appears  to  de- 
sire to  lie  down,  take  his  ears  in  your  hands,  if  they  are  warm  and  pulse  is 
natural  look  out  for  Colic. 

After  Flatulent  Colic  is  cured  give  three  or  four  doses  (30  drops  each) 
of  Daniels'  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops,  and  feed  a  bran  mash  frequently 
for  two  weeks,  always  adding  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders.  To  prevent 
Colic  give  clean  food,  and  give  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice 
a  day  for  a  week  at  a  time  each  month;  this  will  prevent  Colic  and  indiges- 
tion, put  on  flesh  and  make  the  coat  fine  and  glossy. 

My  Colic  Cure  has  cured  thousands  of  cases  of  Colic  after  they  had  been 
given  tp  by  good  Veterinarians,  or  other  so-called  cures  had  proven  their 
worthlessness.  While,  there's  life  there's  hope,  even  if  the  eyes  are  filmed, 
his  upper  lip  turned  up,  his  pulse  cannot  be  felt,  and  you  can  prick  him  with 
a  pin  without  his  moving,  "even  when  they  say  he's  dead"  don't  despair.  If 
you  give  my  Colic  Cure  even  then,  even  when  as  near  death  as  that  he  may 
recover.     Hundreds  have.     In  such  cases  always  double  the  doses. 

Symptoms  of  Impaction  of  the 
Larger  Intestines. — Often  mistaken 
for  colic;  slight  pains  in  the  abdo- 
men, coming  on  at  intervals  of  eight 
to  twelve  hours,  even  twenty-four. 
Abdomen  full,  but  not  distended 
with  gas ;  lies  down,  Hat  and  on  his 
side,  head  and  legs   extended;     fre-  Impaction 

quently  raises  his  head  and  looks  back  at  his  flanks;  remains  down 
sometimes  fifteen  minutes ;  rises  at  intervals ;  walks  about,  paws,  looks 
at  his  sides ;  backs  up  against  the  stall ;  presses  his  tail  hard  against  parti- 
tion; pulse  at  first  sluggish;  later  rapid  and  feeble.  These  symptoms  con- 
tinue sometimes  for  two  or  three  weeks  at  intervals  and  should  be  looked 
after  at  once. 

Treatment  for  Impaction  of  Intestines. — Give  at  once  one  of  Daniels' 
Handy  Physic  Balls ;  if  not  enough  action  in  24  hours  give  another  one. 
Give  also  at  once  60  drops  of  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  No.  1  as  far  back  in  the 
mouth  as  possible,  in  ten  minutes  give  60'  drops  of  No.  2  Colic  Cure,  then 
30  drop  doses  first  No.  1  and  then  No.  2  every  10  to  20  minutes  from 
two  to  four  hours.  Give  copious  enemas  every  hour,  first  of  lukewarm,  soapy 
water,  then  of  salt  and  warm  water.  Rub  and  knead  the  abdomen,  apply 
blankets  wet  with  hot  liniment  powder  to  the  bowels,  covering  with  dry 
ones  to  keep  hot,  repeat  every  ten  minutes,  when  taken  off  rub  dry  and  rub 
in  (not  too  hard)  a  little  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  to  the  abdomen  and  loins, 
give  gentle  walking  exercise ;  with  good  care  and  treatment  you  can  save 
your  horse,  otherwise  inflammation  will  ensue.  Be  sure  to  feed  bran  mashes 
and  soft  food,  twice  daily  for  a  week  or  two,  adding  one  of  my  Renovator 
Powders  to  the  feed.  If  you  feed  my  Renovator  Powder  once  or  twice  a  day 
for  one  week  in  each  month,  your  horse  will  not  be  likely  to  have  impaction, 
he  will  take  on  flesh  and  look  and  feel  fine.  Bear  in  mind  I  don't  guarantee 
my  Colic  Cure  to  cure  Impaction  of  intestines,  but  the  treatment  herein  given 
is  the  safest  you  can  follow.

Inflammation  of  Bowels 


#"^D&  A'  ODAJVIELS'  MteDICINEiT^^ 


Symptoms  of  Inflammation  of  the 
Bowels,  Peritonitis  or  Enteritis,  some- 
times called  red  colic,  is  a  sequence 
usually  of  colic  or  constipation;  gen- 
erally proves  fatal.  The  animal  is  dull 
and  restless ;  refuses  food,  has  shiver- 
ing fits,  mouth  hot,  legs  and  ears  alter- 
nately hot  and  cold,  pulse  quick  and 
small,  looks  toward  his  flanks,  mem- 
brane of  the  nose  and  eyes  congested, 
respiration  increases,  temperature  from 
ioo  to  105,  blood-shot  eyes,  abdomen  hot  and  tender,  lies  down  carefully, 
rolls  on  his  back,  urine  highly  colored  and  scanty;  has  inclination  to  sit  on 
his  haunches  like  a  pig;  this  letter  is  a  sure  indication  of  this  disease  and 
treatment  should  be  begun  in  earnest. 
Treatment  for  Inflammation  of  the 
Bowels,  Peritonitis,  etc. — Give  sixty 
drops  of  No.  1  Colic,  in  ten  minutes 
give  sixty  drops  of  No.  2 ;  give  thirty 
drops  alternately  of  1  and  2  every  ten 
minutes  until  six  doses  are  given ;  to 
reduce  the  fever,  give  three  doses 
(thirty  drops  each)  of  my  Fever 
Drops,  thirty  minutes  apart  or  until  fe- 
ver is  allayed.  Apply  to  loins  and  bow- 
els,   blankets    kept    hot    in    solution    Lini-  Indicates  Inflammation  of  Bowels 

ment  Powder.  Rub  legs  and  loins  lightly  with  Oster-Cocus  Liniment.  If  the 
horse  will  not  eat,  mix  a  Renovator  Powder  in  molasses,  and  spread  on  his 
tongue ;  if  he  will  eat,  give  warm  bran  mash  with  one  of  my  Renovator  Pow- 
ders. Keep  the  horse  quiet  and  do  not  give  physic,  or  injections,  or  solid 
food.  I  have  seen  many  desperate  cases  saved  by  persistent  labor  in  this 
direction.  /  do  not  warrant  to  cure  this  trouble,  but  I  think  this  the  best 
treatment. 

Entangling  of  Intestines  proves  fatal;  there  is  no  cure.  Cause,  empty 
bowels,  with  fast  or  hard  driving;  mistaken  for  Colic.  The  symptoms  cause 
many  to  think  this  trouble  is  Colic,  for  which  it  is  often  mistaken. 

Acute  Indigestion  (Impaction  of  Stomach). — Caused  by  excessive  quan- 
tities or  a  changed  food.     Colicky  pains  are  the  symptoms. 

Treatment. — Unload  the  Stomach,  give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball;  enemas  of 
warm,  soapy  water  are  also  of  assistance.  If  the  animal  will  drink  add  a 
little  salt  to  the  water,  give  30-drop  doses  of  my  Colic  Cure,  first  No.  1  and 
then  No.  2,  at  intervals  of  10  to  20  minutes.  If  the  brain  seems  affected 
give  a  few  doses  of  my  Fever  Drops  (30  drops  each)  at  intervals  of  half 
an  hour.  Apply  cold  cloths  or  ice  to  the  head.  Blanket  and  keep  warm,  rub 
on  the  legs  and  loins  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment. 

Returning  to  feed,  give  warm  bran  mash,  adding  one  of  my  Renovator 
Powders;  these  may  be  continued  for  two  or  three  days,  twice  a  day.     My 

11 


t^lte  A-  ODaniels'  Medicines*^^ 


Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  a  day  in  the  feed  for  a  couple  of  weeks 
will  prevent  recurrence  of  the  attack. 

Symptoms  of  Muco-Enteritis-Apoplexy  of  the  large  bowel ;  quite  com- 
mon and  often  mistaken  for  colic.  When  this  disease  is  not  instantly  treated, 
a  horse  rarely  lives  more  than  twelve  hours.  The  symptoms  are  very  much 
like  colic ;  severe  and  persistent  pains ;  labored  respiration ;  pulse  rapid  and 
weak;  perspires  profusely;  mucous  membrane  pale  in  color;  a  peculiar 
anxious  expression  which  alone  is  enough  to  tell  as  the  trouble.  Nearing 
the  end  the  horse  breathes  very  hard  and  with  heavy  sighs,  staggers  and  falls 
about,  dying  in  delirium. 

Muco-Enteritis  Treatment  is  usually  of  little  avail,  as  the  disease  has  made 
great  progress  before  being  discovered.  Make  copious  hot  applications  of 
Daniels'  Liniment  Powder  to  the  abdomen;  apply  frequently  and  keep  hot 
with  blankets  or  cloths.  Apply  Daniels'  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  lightly  to  the 
legs  and  loins  to  stimulate  circulation,  and  give  Colic  Cure  as  in  ordinary 
Enteritis  until  relieved;  follow  with  four  doses  Fever  Drops  at  intervals  of 
thirty  minutes  to  reduce  fever;  when  resuming  feed,  give  Renovator  Pow- 
ders twice  daily  for  a  week  or  more. 

Azoturia,  Paralysis  of  the  Hind 
Quarters,  Stiffs. — This  common  dis- 
ease is  less  understood  by  the  farmer 
and  general  horse  owner  than  any 
of  the  dangerous  diseases,  and  is 
caused  mainly  by  over  or  heavy 
feeding,  without  the  regular  work 
or  exercise.  It  always  attacks 
horses  that  are  in  good  condition. 
The  seat  of  the  trouble  is  in  the 
group  of  muscles  of  the  hip,  loin 
and  side.  The  horse  starts  out  in 
fine  spirits,  but  soon  and  suddenly  slows  up,  sweats  profusely,  becomes 
lame  in  one  or  both  legs.  The  symptoms  are  often  the  knuckling  of  the 
hind  fetlock  joint,  or  rigidity  of  the  muscles  of  the  hip,  from  stifles  to  hip 
bone.  Evidence  of  indigestion,  membrane  of  eye  and  nose  dusty  brown  color. 
Frequently  passes  gas  and  manure  which  has  an  offensive  odor.  Urine  color 
of  strong  coffee  or  even  blood  color.  When  this  most  characteristic  symptom 
is  observed  there  is  no  question  as  to  the  nature  of  the  disease  and  that  it 
is  not  spinal  meningitis  as  it  is  so  often  called.  Temperature  is  from  102 
to  104. 

Treatment  for  Azoturia. — Give  one  of  Daniels'  Physic  Balls  as  soon  as  pos- 
sible; if  much  fever  give  30  drop  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever 
Drops  at  intervals  of  fifteen  minutes  to  reduce  fever,  and  give  thirty  drops 
of  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  No.  1  every  fifteen  minutes  for  two  or  three  hours, 
and  then  once  in  thirty  minutes  until  relieved ;  but  reduce  the  dose  when 
he  shows  signs  of  improvement.  Apply  blankets  wet  in  hot  Liniment 
Powder  (or  even  hot  water),  folding  them  over  the  back,  loins  and  hips  to 
the  stifle  joint;  keep  them  hot.  After  removing  them,  apply  Oster- 
Cocus  Limment  to  the  affected  parts.     Keep   soft  bedding  under  him  and

change  his  position,  turning  him  over  every  six  hours  at  least.  When  feed- 
ing give  warm  bran  mashes,  adding  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders 
thereto.  Avoid  noise;  keep  him  as  easy  and  comfortable  as  you  can  in 
every  way.    Give  injections  of  soap  and  warm  water. 

Bloody  Flux,  Inflammation  of  Rectal 
Intestines,  Dysentery. 

Treatment. — Mix  3  oz.  castor  oil,  1 
pint  linseed  oil  and  2  oz.  laudanum  and 
give  as  a  dose;  30-drop  doses  of 
Daniels'  No.  1  Colic  Cure  every  ten 
minutes  until  six  or  eight  doses  are 
given,  or  a  change  is  noted,  then  give 
same  size  dose  once  an  hour  from  six 
to  eight  hours ;  mix  one  of  Daniels' 
Renovator  Powders  with  molasses  into 
a  ball  and  give  immediately  after  the 
first  doses  of  No.  1  Colic  Cure.  After 
first  hour  give  clysters  of  warm  water 
at  intervals  until  a  change  is  noted ;  a 
sponge  kept  wet  in  warm  water  and  applied  to  the  rectum  will  give  relief. 
After  giving  Colic  Cure,  take  four  ounces  of  cod  liver  oil,  mix  111 
warm  water  with  four  eggs  and  give  as  a  drench.  For  feed  give  bran 
and  wheat  flour,  equal  parts,  mixing  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  as 
a  mash,  good  clean  hay  (no  grain  for  two  d?ys,  or  until  excretions  are  nor- 
mal). 

Stay  up  Medicine,  for  Track  Work.— Give  twice  between  heats,  at  intervals 
of  10  minutes,  20  drops  of  Daniels'  No.  1  Colic  Cure.  If  much  exhausted 
after  heat  give  two  doses,  30  drops  each,  of  my  Fever  Drops  at  intervals  of 
15  minutes. 

When  on  the  circuit  or  in  racing  company,  if  you  will  give  your  horse  one 
of  my  Renovator  Powders   each  morning  and  night,  in  the   feed,  you   will 
find  them  to  work  wonders  upon  their  nerves,   spirits,  and  endurance. 
If  sore  forward  and  tend  to  quitting  see  page  41. 

Diarrhoea. —  Causes  are  many.  Naturally  some  horses  are  liable  to 
wash  from  the  simplest  cause;  drinking  cold  water,  or  excessive  drink- 
ing of  water,  change  of  feed  from  dry  to  new  or  green,  nervous  ex- 
citement, irritating  food,  poor  judgment  in  giving,  purgative  medicines, 
worms,  pin-worms  in  lower  bowels,  etc. 

Treatment. — Use  care  in  feeding.  Give  dry  feed,  well  seasoned;  feed 
perfectly  clean  good  hay,  give  water  thrice  a  day  only,  early  in  the  morning 
half  hour  before  feeding,  and  at  night,  adding  a  little  powdered  chalk  to  the 
water;  give  three  doses  of  No.  1  Colic  Cure  (30-drop  doses)  20  minutes 
apart,  night  and  morning.  Give  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  twice 
daily  in  feed ;  don't  work  for  a  few  days.  If  worms  are  the  cause,  treat  for 
them.  Well-boiled  browned  flour  gruel  two  or  three  times  daily  is  also  good. 
Scours,  Washy  Horse. — Remove  all  the  causes  whether  worms,  food, 
water  or  medicines.     Give  thirty  drops  of  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  No.  1,  once

in  thirty  minutes.  Usually  two  or  three  doses  will  check  it,  after  which  give 
for  five  or  six  days,  morning  and  night,  one  dose  of  Daniels'  Renovator 
Powders  in  feed  as  a  tonic.  Restrict  drinking,  inject  warm  water.  A  little 
browned  wheat  flour  with  warm  water  is  also  beneficial  as  a  drink;  never 
water  after  feeding  or  on  a  drive;  always  feed  hay  before  grain  when 
troubled  with  Scours- 
Stoppage  of  Water  and  Black  Water. — Give  as  soon  as  possible  thirty  drops 
of  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  No.  i ;  wait  ten  minutes  then  thirty  drops  of  Dan- 
iels' No.  2  Colic  Cure ;  repeat  these  doses  every  ten  minutes  for  two  hours. 
Give  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  mixed  with  molasses  every  thirty  min- 
utes for  two  hours.  Bathe  and  steam  the  loins  and  abdomen,  with  hot 
Liniment  Powder,  wringing  out  hot  cloths  and  binding  on  with  a  blanket. 
If  these  do  not  relieve  in  an  hour  or  two,  rub  in  well  over  the  loins  Daniels' 
Oster-Cocus  Oil;  the  water  should  be  drawn  with  a  catheter.  When  recover- 
ing, Daniels'  Horse  Renovator  is  very  beneficial  as  a  tonic,  to  be  given  in 
the  food  once  or  twice  daily  for  two  weeks. 

Strangury. — Frequent  desire  to  pass  urine,  in  which  are  small  quantities 
of  blood,  indications  of  fever  with  pain. 

Treatment. — Give  thirty  drops  of  No.  i  Colic  Cure  every  twenty  minutes 
for  three  hours,  and  give  a  few  doses  of  Daniels'  Fever  Drops  at  inter- 
vals of  one  hour,  for  three  or  four  hours,  plenty  of  cold  water  to  drink : 
flaxseed  tea  is  of  assistance.  Lay  over  the  kidneys  and  back,  a  blanket  wet 
in  hot  Liniment  Powder,  keeping  it  hot,  cover  with  a  dry  one  to  keep  the 
heat  in  so  as  to  give  a  good  steaming ;  then  rub  in  over  the  loins  my  Oster- 
Cocus  Liniment.  My  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  in  the  feed  is  of  great 
benefit — a  tonic  to  the  kidneys  and  urinary  organs. 

Arsenical  Poisoning. —  Give  thirty 
drops  of  Colic  Cure  No.  i  every  half 
hour  for  six  hours.  Copious  quantities 
of  linseed  mucilage  as  gruel.  Bran 
mashes  freely,  with  Daniels'  Renovator 
Powders  at  least  twice  a  day  for  tonic 
and  strength. 

Bladder  Inflammation.  Symptoms.— 
Colicky  pains  with  repeated  efforts  to 
urinate,  with  straining  and  groaning. 
Treatment.— If  the  urine  has  been 
retarded,  it  should  be  drawn  with  a 
catheter,  and  the  bladder  washed  out ; 
solution,  i  dram  Borax  in  quart  of 
warm  water.  Repeat  twice  daily  until 
Effects  of  Poison  urine  no  longer  decomposes.     Give  bran 

mashes  with  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders.  Drinks  of  linseed  tea  and  slippery 
elm;  inject  into  rectum  same  agents.  Give  thirty  drops  of  No.  I  Colic  Cure 
every  half  hour  until  six  doses  are  given.  Steam  the  loins  with  hot  Lini- 
ment Powder,  followed  by  light  applications  of  Oster-Cocus ;  alternate  these 
two  and  a  little  Oster-Cocus  may  be  applied  lightly,  on  the  back  part  of  the 
abdomen,  or  between  the  thighs,  from  abdomen  downward ;  give  Renovator 
Powders  for  a  week  or  two  after  recovery,

INSURE   YOUR  HORSE 

AGAINST    LOSS    FROM    DISTEMPER    AND 
ALL    LUNG    TROUBLES 

Dr.  A.  C.  Daniels'  Cough,  Cold,  Fever  Drops  and 
Distemper  Cure. — I  offer  this  medicine  as  being  far 
superior  to  anything  heretofore  known  as  a  specific 
for  colds,  coughs,  chills,  epizootic,  distemper,  pink- 
eye, sunstroke,  pneumonia,  lung  fever,  throat 
troubles,  meningitis,  etc. 


FOR  SHIPPERS  IT  IS  WORTH  ITS  WEIGHT  IN  GOLD. 
FOR  ACCLIMATING  HORSES  IT  HAS  NO  EQUAL. 
IT  IS  A  PERFECT  CURE  FOR  MILK  FEVER  IN  COWS  AND  HOG 
CHOLERA  IN  SWINE. 

.  It  works  quicker  and  better  than  any  so-called  cure  in  the  world.  Cures 
and  leaves  no  aftermath,  no  weakness,  no  swollen  limbs,  no  blindness  or 
oth,er  weakness. 

Is  in  constant  use  by  hundreds  of  the  most  successful  practitioners  -of  the 
two  continents.  Although  introduced  into  the  United  States  in  1877,  it  is 
fast  superseding  all  other  remedies,  and  is  to-day  used  in  more  than  100,000 
of  the  principal  stables  from  Maine  to  California.  It  is  used  by  all  the 
igreat  mining  and  lumber  companies,  all  the  show  people  like  Barnum  & 
Bailey,  Ringling  Bros.,  Buffalo  Bill,  Pawnee  Bill,  Four-Paw,  Sawtelle,  by 
Ketcham,  Reed  and  the  big  drivers,  by  stock  farms  and  stock  owners  all 
over  the  world. 

Over  a  quarter  of  a  century  of  unrivalled  success  has  placed  Dr.  Daniels' 
Cough,  Cold,  Fever  Drops  and  Distemper  Cure  on  the  pinnacle  of  fame, 
and  to-day  the  best  professional  people  and  critics  of  the  world  use  them 
in  practice,  arid  say  they  have  more  confidence  of  success  in  treating  tli2se 
diseases  with  Daniels'  Distemper  Cure  than  any  other  remedy  known  to 
science.    They  ought  to  be  good  enough  for  you. 

Coughs,  Colds,  Distemper,  Epizootic,  Pinkeye,  Influenza. —  These  trouble- 
some and  dangerous  ills  are  caused  by  atmospheric  changes,  as  it  usually  oc- 
curs in  spring  and  fall  when  animals  are  sliedding  their  hair.  It  is  doubtless 
many  times   brought   on   by   ill-ventilated,  ill-smelling  and   damp   stables,   or 

15 


great  or  sudden  changes  of  the  weather.  It  is  more  or  less  contagious ;  espe- 
cially in  stables  mentioned  above.  Western  horses  sent  east  are  almost  sure 
to  contract   distemper.     My  Fever  Drops   will  prevent  their   doing  so. 

Chill. — By  this  means  many  diseases  and  fevers  are  ushered  in.  If  the 
chill  be  checked  at  once,  in  most  cases  something  worse  will  be  stopped. 
"A  stitch  in  time  saves  nine."  For  this  purpose  give  at  once  two  or  three 
doses  of  my  Fever  Drops.  Blanket  well  and  keep  out  of  draughts.  Rub  the 
legs  lightly  with  Oster-Cocus  Liniment.     All  will  be  well. 

Cold. — One  step  from  chill,  it  will  perhaps  be  worse.  Treat  at  once  as  for 
chill.  Give  two  to  four  30-drop  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops. 
Give  bran  mash  warm  with  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders,  and  for  two 
weeks  morning  and  night  give  Renovator  in   feed. 

Cold  in  the  Head,  leading  to  catarrh,  etc.,  is  an  inflammation  of  the  lining 
of  the  nostrils  and  other  parts  of  the  head  and  throat,  often  affects  the  eyes, 
causing  them  to  swell  and  the  tears  to  flow.  The  membranes  at  first  are 
dry  and  congested,  pinkish  red,  or  red  in  color,  watery  discharge  from  the 
nostrils,  some  fever  which  shall  be  at  once  apparent  if  we  use  a  clinical 
thermometer.  Animal  will  appear  dull,  sneezing  short  and  often,  "Blows" 
the  air  through  his  nose;  if  not  checked  at  once,  worse  will  soon  follow. 

Treatment. — Act  promptly  and  give  three  to  five  doses  each  day  of  Dr. 
Daniels'  Fever  Drops.  Feed  bran  mashes.  Give  each  day  two  doses  of  my 
Renovator  Powders.  Keep  the  horse  in  a  well-ventilated  stall  without 
draught,  and  keep  him  well  blanketed.  Hang  a  blanket  over  his  head,  and 
put  a  pail  of  hot  Liniment  Powder  underneath.  Stir  it  gently  to  cause  steam 
to  rise.  Put  into  it  a  piece  of  hot  iron  or  stone  occasionally,  to  give  thor- 
ough steaming  and  repeat  every  two  hour?.  If  constipated,  give  warm  water 
injections.    Do  not  work  for  two  or  three  days. 

Chronic  Cough  is  simply  an  old  cough  or  a  cold  that  the  horse  has  been 
troubled  with  for  some  time.  It  arises  from  so  many  different  causes,  and 
has  so  many  variations,  that  no  accurate  definition  of  it  is  possible  and  I 
don't  think  it  is  needed,  as  most  horse  owners  know  it  without  any_  intro- 
duction. While  a  large  proportion  of  cases  are  incurable,  many  yield  to 
treatment;  and  if  a  horse  is  of  any  value,  it  usually  is  worth  trying.  Give 
the  Fever  Drops  four  to  six  times  and  the  Renovator  twice  a  day.  Feel 
along  his  windpipe  carefully  for  some  enlargement  or  thickening.  If  any- 
thing of  this  nature  is  found,  clip  the  hair  over  the  spot  and  apply  my  Ab- 
sorbent Blister,  which  will  absorb  and  dissolve  any  thickening  of  the  car- 
tilage. Repeat  in  two  weeks  if  needed.  Many  times  an  attack  of  distemper 
will  cause  inflammation  and  swelling  of  the  throat,  which  not  being  properly 
treated,  will  gradually  subside,  leaving  a  lump,  which  obstructs  the  air  pas- 
sage. This  trouble  will  cause  a  horse  to  cough  and  breathe  hard  after  a  long 
pull  or  climbing  a  steep  hill.  Worms  also  cause  a  bad  cough ;  if  any  indica- 
tions of  worms  treat  for  them  at  once. 

Catarrh  (Nasal).— Steam  the  head  with  solution  of  Liniment  Powder; 
put  on  hood  to  prevent  colds;  blanket  warm.  Give  30-drop  dose  of  Fever 
Drops  once  an  hour  for  four  hours,  then  once  in  two  hours,  for  four  hours. 
Soft  food ;   bran  mash,  morning  and  night,  first  day,  with  Renovator  Powders

mixed  therein;  then  dampen  the  feed  and  give  Renovator  Powders  twice 
daily  for  two  weeks.  Sometimes  discharge  from  the  nose  is  caused  by  dis- 
eased teeth.  Look  out  for  them.  A  horse  with  discharge  from  the  nose 
should  be  fed  from  a  temporary  manger  or  bucket  placed  near  the  floor,  as 
the  position  of  the  head  while  feeding  facilitates  the  discharge. 

Nasal  Gleet. — This  disease  consists  of  a  chronic  discharge  of  mucus  from 
the  nose.  It  is  generally  caused  by  catarrhal  inflammation,  neglected  catarrh, 
general  neglect,  etc.  It  should  receive  treatment  at  once  as  it  is  somietimes 
the  forerunner  of  serious  diseases.  Build  up  the  strength,  purify  the  blood, 
feeding  bran  mashes  and  soft  breads,  adding  my  Renovator  Powders  daily 
to  feed. 

For  Sponging  the  Mouth  and  Nostrils.— One  tablespoonful  of  Daniels'  Lini- 
ment Powder  to  quart  of  hot  water.  Sponge  out  freely  mouth  and  nostrils; 
it  cools,   revives  and  invigorates. 

For  Steaming  for  Colds  and  Head  Troubles. — One  teaspoonful  of  Liniment 
Powder  to  quart  of  hot  water  (keep  hot  by  placing  hot  irons  in  pail).  Cover 
the  head  with  blanket  or  hood.     Result  will  surprise  you. 

Bronchitis. — More  frequent  in  winter  and  spring;  caused  by  extreme 
changes  of  temperature  and  horse  in  low  condition,  and  by  overheated 
stables  with  foul  air,  all  combined  with  cold  and  wet  weather. 

Symptoms. — Pulse  hard,  full,  frequent;  breathes  quick,  ears  and  legs  cold, 
spine  rigid,  great  thirst,  will  not  eat,  constipated,  though  diarrhoea  may 
sometimes  be  present. 

Treatment. — Blanket  well,  roomy  stall,  plenty  of  good  straw  for  bed,  hot 
inhalations  of  my  Liniment  Powder  (one  tablespoonful  to  quart  of  water), 
keeping  hot  by  putting  hot  iron  or  stone  in  the  bucket;  give  doses,  thirty 
drops  of  my  Fever  Drops  every  thirty  minutes  for  six  hours ;  repeat  the 
steaming  often,  every  hour.  Continue  to  give  Fever  Drops  three  times  daily 
for  four  or  five  days  ;  give  Renovator  Powder  in  bran  mash  warm,  or  if  he 
will  not  eat4  mix  with  molasses  and  spread  on  tongue ;  put  on  throat  once  a 
day,  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  (at  night),  during  day.  hot  Liniment  Powder  and 
bandages ;    if  constipated  give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball. 

Laryngitis. —  Treatment  same  as  for  Bronchitis. 

Horse  Distemper,  Epizootic,  Pinkeye,  Influenza. — Don't  wait,  act  at  once. 
A  stitch  in  time  truly  saves  nine. 

Symptoms. — Usually  a  sudden  shivering,  cold  legs  and  ears,  coat  rough, 
poor  appetite,  sore  throat,  trouble  in  swallowing,  eyes  become  dull,  lips  swell 
and  tears  flow.  The  inside  of  nostrils  deep  red  and  dry,  soon  a  thin  watery 
discharge  is  seen,  followed  in  a  few  hours  by  a  thick  acrid  matter.  Use  a 
clinical  thermometer  in  the  rectum,  temperature  will  be  101  to  103,  and 
this  will  soon  rise  to  104  or  even  to  106,  the  cough  changing  to  a  deep, 
heavy  distressing  one,  pulse  is  quickened  to  50  or  60.  The  horse  steps  around 
and  shows  signs  of  much  pain,  films  in  his  eyes  which  nearly  close,  scant 
urine.     When  you  notice  any  of  these  symptoms,  watch  out  for  Distemper. 

Treatment  for  Distemper.— At  the  outset  remember  ca-re  and  carefu4  nurs-

ing  will  be  a  great  factor  in  saving  your  horse.  BLANKET  HIM  WELL. 
Give  plenty  of  pure  air,  have  no  air  draughts  strike  him,  fresh  cold  water, 
little  at  a  time  and  feed  often  anything  that  he  will  eat,  trying  all  things. 
He  has  lost  his  appetite  and  needs  everything  to  maintain  his  strength.  Mix 
one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  in  his  feed  two  or  three  times  a  day ;  if  he 
will  not  eat,  mix  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  with  a  little  molasses  and 
spread  it  on  his  tongue  at  intervals,  so  he  will  have  two  or  three  a  day. 
GIVE  MY  COUGH,  COLD,  FEVER  DROPS  AND  DISTEMPER  CURE 
IN  ALL  STAGES.  Give  thirty  drop  doses  once  in  ten  to  twenty  minutes 
for  two  or  three  hours  (put  them  in  his  mouth  well  back  on  the  roots  of  his 
tongue),  later  on,  as  soon  as  he  shows  signs  of  relief,  give  the  doses  once  in 
two  hours,  night  and  day  for  two  or  three  days,  or  as  long  as  he  shows  signs 
of  fever.  Steam  head  and  nostrils  with  my  Liniment  Powder,  hot,  and 
bathe  forehead  with  same ;  by  using  water  that  throws  off  a  little  steam  at 
first  you  can  gradually  use  it  much  hotter  for  steaming.  If  the  throat  is 
much  sore,  wet  the  same  with  water,  and  rub  on  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment 
twice  daily  until  swelling  and  soreness  goes  down  (don't  rub  hard  enough 
to  blister).  Continue  feeding  my  Renovator  for  two  or  three  weeks  twice 
daily.  The  horse  requires  a  tonic  to  regain  his  lost  strength,  and  nothing- 
is  better.  This  treatment  will  bring  your  horse  out  well  and  strong.  Many 
cheap  and  unreliable  "medicines"  advertised  for  the  cure  of  Distemper  are 
dangerous  and  untried  remedies,  often  leaving  the  horse  half  blind,  with 
swollen  legs,  weak  kidneys,  dopey  and  half  poisoned ;  beware  of  all  such. 
Daniels'  Cough,  Cold,  Fever  Drops  and  Distemper  Cure  have  been  in  use 
by  thousands  of  horsemen  for  a  quarter  of  a  century.  Treat  Epizootic, 
Pinkeye,  and  Influenza  as  for  Distemper. 

Lung  Fever,  Pneumonia,  is  in- 
flammation of  the  lungs,  which  soon 
causes  a  flow  of  secretion,  which 
fills  up  the  air  cells,  so  that  the  lungs 
cannot  receive  the  air.  Consequently 
he  suffocates  and  dies,  or  else  the 
lymph  is  absorbed  into  the  system 
and  he  recovers.  The  cause  of  this 
common  and  dangerous  disease  is 
the  taking  of  a  sudden  cold,  which 
being  neglected  rapidly  becomes  set- 
tled on  the  lungs,  and  you  should 
give  prompt  care  and  attention.  Re- 
member every  minute  of  delay  makes 
Inflammation  of  Lungs  the    cure    more    in    doubt 

Symptoms.— As  a  first  symptom  we  may  note  the  pulse,  which  in  health 
stands  about  400,  now  rises  to  700  or  ioo°  to  the  minute  and  variable.  Tak- 
ing his  temperature  with  the  thermometer,  we  find  it  over  ioo°,  probably 
1030  or  a  little  more.  He  is  weary,  but  will  not  lie  down,  breathing  acceler- 
ated, and  stands  braced  and  rigid,  hangs  the  head,  appearance  dull.  These 
are  all  symptoms  of  lung  fever,  but  they  are  also  symptoms  of  other  com- 
plications. The  real  test  is  the  sound  of  the  lungs  themselves,  by  tapping  on 
the  side,  when  they  sound  dull,  or  by  putting  the  ear  to  his  side  and  listen- 
ing to  the  sound  of  the  air  passing  through  the  lungs,  and  then  sounding  a

Last  Stage  of  Pneumonia 


well  horse.     If  pleurisy  exists  the  animal  flinches  when  struck  in  sounding. 

Treatment. — Similar  to  that  advised 
for  Distemper.  It  is  of  utmost  im- 
portance to  take  it  in  its  first  stages. 
If  his  stable  is  close  or  smells  of 
ammonia,  remove  him  at  once  where 
he  can  have  plenty  of  pure  air,  not  a 
draught.  Cover  every  part  of  him 
with  warm  blankets  and  bandages, 
rubbing  the  legs  until  warm  and 
bandage  as  far  up  as  they  are  cold; 
when  removing  bandages  rub  on  a 
little  Oster-Cocus.  Give  all  the  cold 
water  he  will  drink.  Let  his  food  be 
bran  mashes,  cooked  carrots  and 
clean,  nice  hay.  Give  my  Fever  Drops  once  in  thirty  minutes  for  two  to 
four  hours;  later  on,  once  an  hour.  Give  at  least  two  doses  of  my  Reno- 
vator each  day,  as  his  strength  must  be  kept  up  at  all  hazards.  When 
the  pulse  gets  down  near  400  to  500  or  the  horse  sweats  profusely,  leave 
off  giving  the  Fever  Drops  so  often,  as  after  this  stage  is  reached  he 
will  need  good  care  and  not  much  medicine.  If  the  horse  seems  very  weak, 
as  a  stimulant  give  6  ounces  of  whisky  or  brandy  in  a  pint  of  water  every 
5  or  6  hours;  if  constipated,  give  warm  soap-suds  injections  occasionally.  If 
he  is  too  weak  to  eat  ordinary  foods,  try  corn  on  the  cob,  carrots,  apples, 
bread;  possibly  he  will  drink  milk,  give  him  all  he  will  take,  add  three  eggs 
(beaten)  to  the  milk. 

Congestion  of  the  Lungs. — The  trained  track  horse  .is  not  usually  afflict- 
ed with  this  trouble;  it  falls  to  the  lot  of  the  horse  hired  for  the  day  or  to 
one  owned  and  driven  beyond  his  endurance,  perhaps  until  he  falls  from 
exhaustion ;  or  a  horse  in  high  condition  standing  in  the  stable  lacking  regu- 
lar exercise  is  taken  out  and  rapidly  driven  several  miles ;  his  nostrils  are 
dilated,  flanks  heave,  distressed  countenance,  breathing  next  to  suffocation, 
the  lungs  become  engorged  with  blood  and  congestion  of  the  lungs  is  on.  In- 
sufficient and  bad  air  in  stables  and  smoke  may  cause  it,  while  other  dis- 
eases may  contribute  to  congestion.  //  from  exhaustion,  stop  where  you 
are,  don't  even  walk  him;  let  him  standstill,  remove  the  harness,  rub  the 
body  and  legs  with  straw  or  cloths ;  get  all  the  help  you  can  to  do  this 
rubbing;  give  30-drop  doses  of  my  Fever  Drops  every  15  minutes  for  an 
hour,  then  once  every  half  hour  until  temperature  is  normal.  After  cir- 
culation is  restored,  bandage  the  legs,  cover  with  blanket,  continue  to  rub 
the  body,  give  stimulants,  the  one  most  handy,  brandy,  whisky,  drench  with 
two  ounces  of  spirits  of  nitrous  ether,  same  quantity  of  alcohol  in  a  pint 
of  water  every  hour  or  so,  or  a  pint  of  whiskv  in  a  pint  of  water  every 
hour  for  three  or  four  hours.  As  soon  as  relieved,  get  into  a  comfort- 
able stall.  Keep  blanketed,  lees  bandaged,  pure  air  and  water;  feed  grass, 
carrots,  bran  mashes,  scalded  oats,  etc.  Always  add  my  Renovator 
Powder  to  the  feed  at  this  time.  Rest  and  light  work  when  recovered.  Con- 
gestion of  the  lungs  often  leads  to  pneumonia.

a  little  over-exertion,  severe  taxing  of  the  nervous  system,  and  only  a  little 
carelessness  or  neglect  will  (under  exposure)  easily  and  quickly  result  in 
the  ruin  or  loss  of  a  valuable  horse.  There  are  two  things  the  prudent  stable- 
keeper,  horse-owner  and  driver  should  always  keep  on  hand,  two  diseases 
which  if  not  promptly  relieved  are  most  liable  to  run  too  far  in  their  rapid 
course  before  professional  service  can  be  obtained,  and  to  these  most  fatal 
attacks  Colic  and  Chill  are  so  simple  to  handle.  When  first  coming,  profes- 
sional services  are  not  required.  Colic  and  Chills  can  be  easily  overcome  by 
the  most  inexperienced  if  they  have  the  proper  remedies,  and  there  are 
several  good  prescriptions  for  either  of  these  attacks  available,  and  of  more 
or  less  value,  but  for  quick  work,  satisfactory  results,  and  easy,  simple  treat- 
ment, none  are  equal  to  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  for  Colic,  and  Daniels'  Cough, 
Cold,  Fever  and  Distemper  Cure  for  Lung  troubles.  These  two  remedies 
in  hand,  with  prompt  action  and  good  care,  one  need  never  fear  for  their 
stock.  A  horse  win  never  die  from  Colic  if  this  famous  cure  is  administered 
in  any  reasonable  time  ;  and  Colds,  Pneumonia,  Congestion  of  Lungs  from 
exposure,  Fever  and  Distempers  will  rarely  occur  if  Daniels'  Cough,  Cold 
and  Fever  Drops  are  promptly  given,  and  reasonable  care  is  observed. 

Pleurisy  is  inflammation  of  the  membraneous  lining  of  the  lungs  and 
chest. 

Symptoms. — A  chill,  staring  coat,  coldness  of  the  surface  of  the  body. 
Breaths  not  as  short  or  as  quick  as  in  pneumonia.  Signs  of  pain  similar  to 
Colic.  Paws,  and  sometimes  lies  down;  grows  sore  and  stiff;  generally  hai 
a  short  dry  couerh. 

Treatment.— Give  thirty  drop  doses  of  Daniels'  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever 
Drops^  every  thirty  minutes  for  two  hours.  Wet  a  blanket  in  a  solution  of 
hot  Liniment  Powder  and  bind  over  the  chest  and  lungs,  keeping  hot  with 
a  dry  one,  repeating  for  one  or  two  hours,  after  which  bathe  the  chest  and 
lungs  with  Oster-Cocus  to  keep  up  circulation.  Avoid  draughts;  feed  bran 
mashes  once  or  twice  a  day,  and  always  add  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders; 
in  fact,  give  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day  for  two  or  three  weeks  in 
the  feed. 

Difficult  Breathing.— Should  have  attention  and  treatment  at  once.  Promnt- 
fiess^  often  prevents  many  serious  diseases.  Give  thirty  drop  doses  of  Dr. 
Daniels'  Cough.  Cold  and  Fever  Drops  every  thirty  minutes  for  two  to 
four  hours.  Blanket  warm;  avoid  draughts;  rub  on  the  chest  and  lungs 
a  little  Oster-Cocus  Liniment.  Give  a  warm  bran  mash,  adding  one  of 
Daniels'  Renovator  Powders.  This  little  effort  will  usually  prevent  the 
horse  cominsr  down  w'th  Distemner  or  some  other  throat  or  lung  trouble. 

Cerebro-Spmal  Meningitis. — Symptoms,  inflammation  of  the  brain,  spinal 
cord  and  their  nerve  centers,  paralysis,  dizziness,  sudden  falling  to  the 
ground :  neck  and  back  muscles  contract  so  suddenly  as  to  sometimes  draw 
the  head  back;  eyes  wild  and  head  tossed  about;  high  fever;  delirium;  un- 
less relieved  death  ensues  in  four  to  twentv-four  hours. 

Treatment  in  this  class  is  of  little  use,  but  in  many  cases  success  mav  be 
attained. ^  Give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball  and  promptly  give  thirty  drops  of  Dan- 
iels' Colic  Cure  No.  I  every  half  hour  until  eisdit  doses  have  been  given ; 
blanket  warm;  if  urine  is  not  passed  use  catheter.  Sunport  in  sling;  in- 
halation of  hot  Liniment  Powder.  Apply  freely  Oster-Cocus  to  neck,  spine 
and  throat;  repeated  doses  of  four  to  six  ounces  of  whisky  to  quart  of  milk;

give  four  to  six  doses  of  Fever  Drops  at  intervals  of  30  minutes  to  allay 
fever.  Give  a  Renovator  Powder  every  six  hours  in  molasses ;  mix  and  place 
on  the  tongue.  Allow  plenty  of  fresh  water,  clean  sanitary  conditions,  a 
complete  change  of  food  for  all  the  horses  in  the  stable.  Disinfect  every- 
thing in  and  about  the  premises.  Feed  soft  food  mashes  with  Renovator 
Powders  when  convalescing. 

Thumps. — Violent  beating  of  the  heart,  producing  a  jerky  motion  to  the 
whole  body;  if  they  are  persistent  we  may  expect  serious  heart  disease,  and 
if  so  may  not  be  curable. 

Treatment. — Avoid  over-exertion  and  excitement;  let  him  stand  still. 
Give  in  all  cases  30  drop  doses  of  Daniels'  Fever  Drops  every  half  hour  for 
3  hours  daily  for  several  days,  and  3  or  4  doses  of  Colic  Cure  may  be  given 
each  day  at  intervals  of  half  an  hour.  It  is  better  to  give  the  Fever  Drops 
at  night  and  Colic  Cure  in  the  morning.  Care  as  to  diet  and  treatment  will 
be  of  much  importance. 

Weed,  Lymphangitis,  or  inflam- 
mation of  the  absorbent  vessels  of 
the  hind  legs,  is  caused  by  high  feed- 
ing, over-feeding,  with  too  little  ex- 
ercise, and  is  more  often  seen  in 
heavy  work  horses,  noticeable  in 
particular  on  Monday  following  a 
day  of  rest,  so  much  so  in  some  lo- 
calities the  disease  is  known  as 
"Monday  morning  leg." 

Symptoms  first  located  in  the  hind 
legs,  one  usually  swollen  consider- 
ably larger  than  its  mate,  mostly  on 
the  inside,  often  running  from  the  foot,  involving  the  entire  limb,  much 
heat,  tender,  favors  and  .holds  from  the  ground,  often  chills  and  shivers. 
Frequently  the  horse  has  previously  suffered  from  colic,  constipation,  loss 
of  appetite,  may  have  great  thirst;  unless  relieved,  the  swelling  increases 
and  forms  abscesses.  Once  having  this  disease,  we  may  look  for  its  repeat- 
ing itself  frequently  until  the  swollen  leg  becomes  permanent. 

Treatment. — At  first  symptoms  of  chill  give  several  doses  of  my  Fever 
Drops  of  30  drops  each  at  intervals  of  half  hour  to  reduce  the  temperature, 
blanket  and  keep  warm,  give  a  Physic  Ball,  add  my  liniment  powder  to 
water,  foment  the  limb  with  cloths  wrung  out  as  hot  as  possible  and 
wound  about  the  leg;  bran  mash  wi-th  one  of  mv  Renovator  Powders  should 
be  the  feed  for  a  day  at  least,  put  in  the  drinking  water  about  an  ounce  of 
saltpeter  three  times  a  day— of  course  if  the  swelling  reaches  the  stage  of 
abscess  they  may  be  poulticed,  opened,  drained  and  cleansed  with  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus— then  apply  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  to  heal. 

When  the  swelling  has  become  permanent  continued  use  of  my  Oster- 
Cocus  Liniment  for  external  application,  good  rubbing  and  laxative  feed, 
helped  along  by  Physic  Ball,  linseed  oil  and  my  Renovator  Powders  will 
give  the  best  results.

Symptoms. — A  cold,  sore  throat, "dull,  loss  of  appetite,  nose  runs,  quick 
breath  and  pulse.  Swellings  on  one  or  both  sides,  in  the  space  within  the 
lower  jaw  bones. 

Treatment. — Prompt  and  active  attention  at  once;  apply  a  linseed  poul- 
tice to  the  swelling,  saltpeter  in  the  drinking  water  twice  daily,  feed  bran 
mashes,  adding  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily,  bring  the  swelling  to 
point  of  opening  at  once.  If  this  does  not  occur  speedily,  apply  my  Ab- 
sorbent Blister,  bring  the  swelling  to  a  head,  and  lance,  cleanse  with  Carbo- 
Negus   (Solution)   and  heal  with  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 

Temperature. — The  normal  temperature  of  the  body  varies  from  98  to  100 
degrees  Fahrenheit.  A  temperature  of  102  to  103  is  moderate ;  feverish,  from 
104  to  105  is  high,  and  106  is  excessive.  This  elevation  of  temperature  can  be 
felt  by  the  hand  placed  in  the  mouth  of  the  animal  or  in  the  rectum,  may  be 
felt  to  a  certain  extent  over  any  part  of  the  body  and  in  the  breath  of  the 
animal.  Ears  or  legs  may  be  hot  or  cold;  if  cold,  it  indicates  a  debilitated 
condition  of  the  animal  and  poor  circulation  of  the  blood.  The  Clinical 
Fever  Thermometer  is  the  only  accurate  means  of  telling  the  exact  tempera- 
ture.

(Register)  of  Clinical  Thermometer  is  to  take  hold  of  instrument  wilh 
thumb  and  forefinger  as  cut  illustrates,  and  give  a  full  arm  downward  swing 
ending  up  with  a  jerk,  throwing  the  mercury  to  the  bulb. 

In  this  way  two  or  three  swings  will  in  nearly  all  cases  be  sufficient  to 
place  column  in  position  for  further  use.

To  read  the  Thermometer.— Hold  the  sharp  edge  of  the  glass  toward  you  in 
a  horizontal  position  just  below  and  across  the  line  of  vision  as  illustrated; 
rolling  slightly  backward  and  forward  in  this  position,  you  will  see  the 
column  of  mercury  running  immediately  above  the  figures  which  will  appear 
in  the  magnifying  thermometer  nearly  an  eighth  of  an  inch  wide. 

Put  the  Instrument  Aside,  as  the  mercury  will  remain  at  highest  point 
until  shaken  down,  and  shows  you,  when  ready  to  use  again,  just  what  the 
degree  of  fever  was  when  used  before,  one  can  then  easily  tell  whether  the 
fever  is  rising  or  falling. 

Something  about  the  Pulse  of  a  Horse 

It  is  frequently  of  great  importance  to  note 
the  pulsations  of  the  heart  in  treating  disease. 
When  at  rest  the  pulse  beats  at  an  average  of 
about  40  per  minute,  but  varies  in  different  horses 
from  34  to  42.  In  colts  and  old  horses  it  runs 
much  higher — sometimes  to  60  and  over — and 
still  the.  health  be  good.  It  will  also  be  increased 
by  hot  stables,  excitement  and  pregnancy.  The 
most  convenient  place  to  feel  the  horse's  pulse  — ■ 
is  on  the  under   side   of  the  lower   jaw.      Press  Taking  the  Pulse 

the  fingers   along  the   edge   of  the  jaw,   when  a 

cord  or  ridge  will  be  felt.  Press  on  this  with  the  fingers,  when  you  will 
feel  it  throb.  A  very  little  practice  in  "taking  the  pulse"  will  soon  make  it 
plain  to  you,  and  is  liable  to  be  of  great  service.  Any  great  variation  in  the 
pulse  is  a  sign  of  disease.  If  it  is  rapid  and  hard  it  indicates  high  fever  and 
inflammation ;  if  weak  and  rapid,  there  is  low  fever  and  general  weakness 
and  lung  trouble. 

In  cattle  the  pulse  is  faster  than  in  the  horse ;  young,  55  to  65 ;  adults,  40 
to  50;  aged,  40  to  45.  Sheep  still  faster — 60  to  70.  Dogs,  80  to  90  beats 
per  minute. 

Respiration  in  Healthy  Animals. — A  horse  breathes  in  a  minute  10  to  12 
times;  a  cow,  15  to  18  times;  a  sheep,  14  to  18  times;  a  dog,  15  to  20  times. 

Glanders  and  Farcy 

Glanders. — A  dangerous,  contagious  disease.  Slaughter  at  once.  Disin- 
fect all  surroundings,  stall,  stable,  etc.  Carbo-Negus  is  the  greatest  germ 
killer  of  the  age.     Four  to  six  spoonfuls  to  quart  of  water. 

Glanders  and  Farcy  are  one  and  the  same,  differing  only  that  the  term 
Glanders  is  applied  when  the  local  lesions  predominate  in  the  internal 
organs,  lungs  and  air  tubes.  Farcy,  when  the  manifestation  is  an  outbreak  of 
the  lesions  on  the  exterior  or  skin.  Glanders  applies  to  both  forms,  Farcy  is 
limited  to  the  visible  appearance  of  external  trouble  only.  Glanders  is 
contagious,   easily  communicated  to   man,   sheep,  goats,    dogs,   cats,   rabbits,

etc.,  variable  in  its  course  but  death  sure.  It  is  a  disease  forming  connective 
tissue  or  tubercles,  which  turn  to  ulcers  and  exude  a  peculiar  discharge. 
Fever  is  present,  and  complications  of  lymphatic  glands,  of  the  lungs  and 
internal  organs.     Glanders  is  one  of  the  most  ancient  of  diseases. 

Stable  attendants  serve  as  one  of  the  most*  common  carriers.  Dried  or 
fresh  discharges  are  collected  from  the  infected  animal  in  cleaning,  harness- 
ing, feeding,  handling,  clothing,  currycomb,  brush,  bridle,  halter,  etc. 

Glanders  can  exist  without  being  apparent.  Even  the  most  experienced 
veterinarian  may  not  be  cognizant  of  its  presence.  Public  watering  troughs, 
feed  boxes,  etc.,  are  often  responsible  for  its  spread. 

The  primary  symptoms  are  the  result  of  inoculation  developed  at  the  point 
of  inoculation ;  later  the  poison  is  carried  by  means  of  the  blood  to  other 
parts  of  the  body.  Chronic  Farcy  is  noticed  in  the  formation  of  little  nod- 
ules under  the  skin,  soon  infringing  the  skin  itself.  These  are  known  as 
"buds"  or  buttons  and  soon  produce  ulcers,  irregular  in  shape,  ragged  edges 
overhang  the  sores  that  have  a  gray,  dirty  bottom,  discharging  thin  or  puru- 
lent, mixed  with  a  sticky-yellowish  substance  somewhat  the  color  of  olive 
oil. 

This  discharge  alone  is  almost  diagnostic.  While  resembling  Greasy  Heel 
and  certain  attacks  of  Lymphangitis,  it  is  characteristic.  The  discharge  gath- 
ers on  the  hair  surrounding  the  ulcer,  dries  in  scab-like  formation,  growing 
in  size  and  thickness  until  it  falls  off.  These  buttons  occur  more  frequently 
on  the  lips,  neck,  lower  part  of  shoulders,  inside  the  thighs  and  outside  the 
leg.  Often  a  cough  is  developed  similar  to  that  noticed  in  heaves,  sudden 
swelling  in  one  hind  leg  near  the  canon,  extending  sometimes  below  the 
pastern  or  as  high  as  the  stifel,  this  swelling  may  be  indented  with  pressure. 
Glanders  in  chronic  state  may  exist  for  a  long  time,  brought  to  an  acute 
stage  by  some  sudden  exposure  or  low  ground  conditions,  same  symptoms 
more  or  less  marked,  as  indicated  in  Farcy.  A  rapid  outbreak  of  tubercules 
in  the  respiratory  tract  degenerating  into  ulcers,  which  force  from  the  nos- 
trils considerable  of  a  discharge. 

The  salient  features  of  the  disease  are  the  formation  of  small  ulcers, 
growing  larger  and  irregular,  containing  round  cells  filled  with  serous  fluid  ; 
the  lymphatic  glands  swell,  etc. ;  the  process  goes  on  mostly  in  the  cutaneous 
and  sub-cutaneous  tissues  and  passages,  particularly  attacking  the  nose. 
When  the  cutaneous  symptoms  are  in  abeyance  and  the  mucous  membrane 
of  the  nose  discharges  profusely,  we  term  it  Glanders.  When  there  is  little 
or  no  discharge  from  the  nose,  but  the  cutaneous  conditions  are  well  de- 
veloped, we  term  it  Farcy.     When  in  any  doubt  get  a  veterinary  surgeon. 

Coughing,  Farcy  buttons,  enlargements  of  glands,  bleeding  from  the  nose, 
swollen  hind  legs,  difficult  respiration  follows,  flanks  heave,  temperature 
reaches  103  to  105,  and  other  symptoms  of  acute  form  resembling  Lung 
Fever  or  Pneumonia.  Great  care  should  be  exercised  and  expert  evidence 
should  be  summoned  in  all  doub,tful  cases  of  Glanders.  The  greatest  pre- 
caution should  be  taken  in  handling  a  glandered  horse,  as  the  slightest 
abrasion  is  liable  to  transmit  the  disease  to  the  attendant.

A  Medicine  Not  a  Food 


A  TRUE   CONDITION   POWDER

dition.    Acts  on  Kidneys.     Make  Your  Own  Stock  Food  and  Save  Money. 

Believing  there  was  a  demand  among  the  better  class  of  horsemen  for 
condition  powders  that  would  really  do  what  was  claimed  for  them,  with 
whom  quality  and  not  quantity  would  count,  I  have  not  spared  pains  or  ex- 
pense in  manufacturing  this  medicine,  and  the  enormous  sales  which  it  has 
attained  are  indeed  flattering  to  my  judgment. 

This  wonderful  remedy  has  put  hundreds  of  thousands  of  worn-out  and 
run-down  horses  in  fine  condition.  No  matter  who  has  been  treating  your 
horse  without  success,  or  how  long  continued  has  been  his  trouble,  I  ask 
you  to  try  this  medicine. 

If  given  occasionally,  it  will  ward  off  Fits,  Colic,  Fever,  Indigestion, 
Heaves,  Worms,  Bots,  Pinkeye,  etc.,  and  keep  your  horse  looking  and  feel- 
ing "as  fine  as  silk."  If  your  horse  coughs,  does  not  shed  his  coat,  is  hide- 
bound or  pinched  bellied,  scours,  does  not  eat  or  digest  his  food  well,  legs 
stock,  or  he  drives  dull  and  logy,  try  this  medicine.  It  will  show  its  effects 
on  the  kidneys  in  one  day,  on  his  spirits  in  two  days,  greatly  improve  his 
general  condition  within  two  weeks,  and  many  times  add  twenty-five  or 
even  fifty  pounds  to  his  weight  in  a  month.     It  makes  good  blood.  ^ 

All  Roots  and  Barks,  when  ground  and  exposed  to  the  air,  soon  lose  their 
strength  and  virtue.  For  this  reason,  and  also  that  exactly  the  same  dose 
may  be  given  each  time,  to  insure  the  best  results,  I  have  put  each  dose  in  a 
separate  box,  thus  insuring  the  strength  of  this  medicine,  even  if  kept  for 

25 


, — _ — _ — x — ^ 

years.     I  warrant  it  to  cleanse  the  system  of  all  impurities  arising  from  bad 
blood,   disordered  stomach  or  kidneys. 

Don't  think  all  the  "Powders"  you  may  see  in  dose  packages  are  like  Dr. 
Daniels'  Renovator ;  imitators  arc  now  using  my  methods — use  only  Daniels' 
for  best  results. 

We  have  never  given  our  formulas  for  these  powders  to  anyone  ; 
hence  no  one  can  make  any  just  like  Daniels'. 

Many  horses  that  are  kept  for  pleasure  driving  do  not  have  exercise 
enough.  Especially  is  this  true  during  continued  spells  of  bad  weather. 
When  the  horse  is  taken  out  he  seems  to  feel  in  the  best  of  spirits ;  he 
starts  off  beautifully,  and  soon  begins  to  sweat,  becomes  dull  and  logy.  If 
touched  with  the  whip  he  soon  falls  back  and  seems  to  feel  weak  and  shift- 
less, which  is  his  exact  condition.  To  owners  of  nice  driving  horses  I  say 
try  a  single  package  of  my  Renovator  on  such  a  horse — ordinary  cases  one 
dose  daily— and  note  the  wonderful  Change  in  his  condition.  If  very  badly 
out  of  order,  two  doses  a  day  may  be  given.  He  pricks  his  ears  at  sound,  of 
falling  footsteps ;  is  all  life  and  energy  and  ready  to  do  his  best  at  a  moment's 
notice.  Don't  understand  me  to  say  that  it  will  change  a  work  horse  into  a 
thorough-bred;  but  that  a  few  doses  a  week  will  put  any  horse,  that  has 
natural  life  and  spirit,  into  the  best  shape,  and  will  maintain  that  high  condi- 
tion. The  question  is  often  asked,  How  long  is  it  best  to  continue  feeding 
this  powder?  In  answer  I  will  say  that  usually  one  or  two  packages  will  put 
a  horse  into  the  best  possible  condition. 

Bear  in  mind  that  it  will  take  time  to  remedy  a  case  of  long  standing;  but 
if  you  will  try  it  thoroughly  and  your  horse  is  not  improved,  you  can  get 
your  money  refunded  from  anyone  who  sells  you  the  medicine.  What  the 
electric  is  to  lighting,  my  Renovator  is  to  other  condition  powders.  Those 
who  have  not  used  it  cannot  know  or  understand  what  its  effect  will  be 
in  restoring  to  health  and  spirit  a  run-down  or  low-spirited  horse.  Words 
fail  me  in  striving  to  convey  to  you  any  adequate  idea  of  what  a  few  doses 
of  this  remarkable  preparation  will  do. 

No  arsenic,  antimony,  rosin,  no  cheap  middling,  clay  or  grain  dust  or 
other  poisons  are  used  in  its  composition.  It  is  a  powerful  tonic  and  blood 
purifier,  diuretic  and  demulcent — a  medicine.  I  recommend  it  to  be  used, 
under  all  conditions  and  under  all  treatments.  It  carries  off  all  acria 
and  poisonous  secretions  by  way  of  the  kidneys  and  sweat  glands, 
and  is  of  the  greatest  value  in  all  inflammation  of  the  membranes  of  the 
throat,  stomach  and  bowels.  It  should  always  be  used  when  treating  for  any 
foot  and  leg  troubles.  Nothing  can  equal  its  action  in  keeping  up  the 
strength  during  fevers  and  inflammation,  building  up  the  system,  and  throw- 
ing off  all  foul,  acrid  and  residual  particles  of  diseases  afterwards.  My 
Renovator  and  Condition  Powders  are  purely  a  medicine  and  not  a  food. 

Many  times  owners  of  work  horses  ask  me  why  I  do  not  put  up  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  in  bulk,  saying  they  are  too  expensive  to  give  work  horses. 
First  let  me  say  cheapness  in  a  medicine  is  not  a  good  qualification  or  one 
which  Dr.  Daniels  seeks.  Cheap  medicine  is  like  everything  else  cheap,  no 
good.  One  dozen  doses  of  my  Renovator  Powders  contain  more  medicinal 
virtue  than  can  be  found  in  a  barrel  of  any  horse  and  cattle  food  on  the 
market.     To  give  an  idea  of  so-called  foods,  I  quote  from  the  Pennsylvania 

26 


I    — •    ' — S— ^ 

State  Experiment  Station  in  1899,  a  horse  and  cattle  food  manufactured 
at  Rochester,  N.  Y.,  sold  at  14  cents  per  pound,  in  twelve  pound  packages, 
and  8H  cents  per  pound  in  two  hundred  pound  lots;  compared  with 
mixed  wheat,  bran  and  gluten  food,  it  has  a  similarity  in  all  except  price. 

Stock  Foods. — Make  your  own  stock  food  by  adding  a  dose  of  these 
Powders  to  the  regular  feed  once  a  day  for  a  week ;  you  will  save  money, 
and  get  much  better  results.  Try  it  once.  Remember  if  it  don't  prove  true 
you  get  your  money  back. 

For  Fitting  Horses. — When  run  down  in  condition — when  they  drive  lazy 
and  dopey.  First  note  the  condition  of  the  teeth  and  mouth  :  have  these  right. 
Feed  good  oats,  clean  hay,  and  add  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  morning 
and  night  to  the  feed  for  ten  days.  Omit  the  Powders  for  four  days,  then 
repeat;  give  a  warm  bran  mash  two  or  three  times  a  week,  always  adding 
one  of  my  Renovator  Powders;  repeat  for  a  month  or  two,  and  you  will 
have  a  new  horse  both  in  action  and  appearance.  Then  you  can  get  your 
price. 

Diseases  of  the  Digestive  Organs. — Abnormal  appetite  usually  indicates 
worms  or  irritation  of  the  stomach.  In  diarrhoea  the  discharges  from  the 
bowels  are  frequent  and  watery;  in  constipation,  infrequent,  dry  and  hard. 
When  an  animal  passes  blood,  it  is  generally  from  dysentery,  piles,  ulcers 
in  the  bowels,  or  rupture.  Swelling  of  the  belly,  unusual  discharges  of 
wind,  and  fits  of  giddiness  are  common  in  colic  and  indigestion  and  from 
worms.     Watch  the  signs. 

Dyspepsia. — Chronic  Indigestion  as  a  rule  would  not  exis*  if  the  horse  was 
properly  fed  and  cared  for  with  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders.  Indigestion 
causes  many  other  troubles  for  the  horse.  Teeth  are  often  the  fault.  See 
they  are  all  right.  Avoid  irregular  or  overfeeding;  or  dusty,  musty  and 
poor  food  and  unsanitary  conditions. 

Symptoms. — Irregular  appetite,  and  bolting  food,  depraved  appetite,  eating 
soiled  bedding,  wood,  even  his  own  excrescence;  bowels  irregular  and  bad 
smelling,  grain  passed  whole,  hay  impacted,  excessive  amount  of  gas,  poor 
in  flesh,  hide-bound  and  rough  coat. 

Treatment.— Best  of  food  at  regular  intervals,  adding  one  of  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  twice  daily  for  a  week  or  two  in  each  month  until  relieved, 
good  water,  before  feeding;  prepare  the  horse  for  and  give  one^of  Daniels' 
Physic  Balls  (observe  the  directions  laid  down  in  giving  Daniels'  Physic 
Balls).  Feed  bran  mashes  with  Renovator  Powder  added  until  operation  of 
physic,  then  long  hay  for  first  day,  then  regular  feed,  but  add  Renovator 
Powders.  Avoid  overwork  and  exposure.  Keep  stable  clean,  and  remem- 
ber the  horse  requires  live  times  the  air  you  do;  avoid  draughts. 

Abortion. — Causes  numerous — cold  and  wet.  indige^tYble  food,  colic,  poor 
condition  of  blood,  putrid  or  frozen  water,  certain  plants,  savin  or  rue;  can 
tharides;   poisonous   medicines,   as   opium,    digitalis,   various   salts,    ergotized 
plants,  purgatives,  fright,  excitement,  etc.,  etc. 

Treatment.— First  prevent.  Every  care  should  be  exercised  to  give  proper 
protection,  food,  air  and  drink.  Keep  the  mare  in  condition  by  the  best  of 
food,  care  and  treatment  during  pregnancy.  Feed  warm  bran  mashes  about 
twice  a  week,  and  put  into  them  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders ;  and  for  ten 
days  out  of  each  month,  feed  one  of  my  Powders  night  or  morning.     This 

27 


c^^    ' — *—m 

treatment  and  careful  attention  will  reduce  this  trouble  to  a  minimum. 
Isolate  from  aborting  animals  and  bury  fetus;  disinfect  stable  and  sur- 
roundings with  Carbo-Negus. 

For  Mares. — In  a  majority  of  cases,  when  the  mare  fails  "to  take,''  a  few 
weeks'  treatment  with  these  powders  from  once  to  twice  a  day  in  the  feed 
will  put  her  in  proper  condition. 

For  Stallions  run  down  and  "indifferent,"  give  two  Renovator  Powders 
daily  morning  and  night  in  the  feed  for  a  week,  then  one  a  day  for  two 
weeks,  and  you  will  be  surprised  at  results. 

Inflammation  of  Liver  (Yellows). — Give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball;  follow  with 
pint  linseed  oil ;  change  feed  to  green  and  soft  variety,  chopped  roots, 
mashes  with  Renovator  Powders  daily,  to  keep  bowels'  open  and  tonic  the 
system. 

P.  S. — If  you  occasionally  feed  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  in  the  feed 
for  a  week  or  ten  days,  your  horse  will  rarely  be  troubled  with  liver, 
bowel  or  stomach  diseases. 

Thrush  in  the  Mouth. —  Caused  by  bad  condition  of  stomach;  give  Physic 
Bajl;  feed  bran  mashes  often,  put  my  Renovator  Powder  in  feed  once  or 
twice  a  day  for  two  weeks;  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  applied  to  the  sores 
with  soft  brush  or  sponge  will  heal  them. 

Heaves. — Have  a  clean  stable  and  fresh  air ;  feed  in  small  quantities  and 
often;  moisten  oats  or  hay — use  crushed  oats  if  possible;  do  not  feed  corn 
or  clover  hay.  A  small  quantity  of  the  best  hay  cut.  once  or  twice  a  day 
is  enough.  Give  two  or  three  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops 
morning  and  night,  or  a  dose  whenever  the  horse  coughs,  half  an  hour  apart, 
well  back  on  the  roots  of  the  tongue.  If  constipated,  give  one  of  my 
Physic  Balls;  give  often  warm  bran  mashes,  always  adding  one  of  my 
Renovator  Powders.  Always  water  before  feeding,  and  never  after,  and 
not  much  at  a  time-  Moistening  the  oats  and  hay  prevents  the  dust  from 
flying.  Give  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  for  one  week  and  omit 
a  week,  repeating  every  other  week  for  two  or  three  months,  or  until  the 
horse  is  improved.  Carrots,  turnips  and  potatoes  chopped  and  mixed  with 
the  oats^make  a  good  feed.  Don't  work  the  horse  immediately  after  feed- 
ing. Mix  with  a  pint  of  water,  i  ounce  Fowler's  Solution  of  Arsenic,  I 
drachm  of  extract  belladonna.  l/>  drachm  tincture  of  ginger,  and  give  a  table- 
spoonful  three  times  a  day  for  two  weeks,  then  twice  a  day  for  ten  days, 
then  once  daily  for  a  week.  This  is  highly  beneficial — remember  there  is  no 
absolute  cure.    . 

Anaemia  (Impoverished  Blood). — Give  good  feed  and  water,  a  clean  stable 
and  fresh  air.  Give  bran  mash  freauently.  Build  up  the  blood  and  condi- 
tion by  free  use  of  my  Renovator  Powders;  giving  twice  daily  in  the  feed 
one  of  these  Powders  two  weeks  out  of  each  month  will  soon  do  it. 

Slobbering. — Don't  check  high.  Wash  the  mouth,  lips  and  gums  fre- 
quently with  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  Liniment;  give  20  drops  of  Daniels' 
Fever  Drops  three  times  dailv,  place  a  bucket  of  clean  water  near,  that  he 
may  have  it  to  cool  his  mouth :  feed  bran  mash  often  with  Renovator 
Powders ;  look  out  for  growth  in  the  mouth,  and  have  the  teeth  properly 
filed.  Add  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  to  the  feed  twice  a  day  for  one 
week  at  a  time  every  month.  Some  horses  can  only  be  cured  by  using 
a  Porter  humane  bit.

«  '  — -2— m 

Apoplexy. — Apply  chopped  ice  to  the  head  in  bags,  secure  by  proper 
fastenings.  Give  Physic  Ball  to  purge.  Bathe  and  rub  the  legs  in  hot  Lini- 
ment Powder.  If  much  excitement  exists,  give  thre.e  or  four  doses  of  my 
Fever  Drops,  or  if  depression  shows  prominence,  give  four  doses  daily  for  a 
week  of  my  Colic  Cure  No.  I.  Give  in  the  feed  twice  a  day  one  of  my 
Renovator  Powders  a  week  or  ten  days   out  of  each  month. 

Loss  of  Appetite. — First  look  out  for  teeth  and  mouth.  Have  them  in 
proper  condition.  Feed  warm  bran  mashes  three  or  four  times  a  week,  and 
add  a  Renovator  Powder  night  and  morning  to  mash  or  feed.  Feed  Reno- 
vator daily  morning  and  night  for  two  weeks.  Good  stable,  clean,  sanitary 
conditions. 

Congestion  of  Liver. — Give  one  of  my  Physic  Balls;  good  digestible  food 
with  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  morning  and  night ;  bran  mash  two 
or  three  times  a  week.  Little  or  no  relief  can  be  given  when  caused  by  fatty 
degeneration. 

Roaring  (Spurious). — Depending  on  colds,  influenza,  etc.;  can  be  often 
overcome  by  care,  food,  etc.  First,  apply  Oster-Cocus  to  the  throat  if  any 
swelling.  Give  three  or  four  doses  of  Fever  Drops  each  day.  For  food, 
cut  hay  wet  with  lime  water  and  mixed  with  oats  chopped.  Give  less  bulky 
foods.  Carroto  and  roots  are  good.  Do  all  you  can  to  keep  the  animal  in 
good  condition.  Avoid  corn,  cotton  seed  and  fattening  foods.  Give  fre- 
quently my  Renovator  Powders  morning  and  night.  Apply  a  blister  to  the 
skin  of  the  laryngeal  region,  and  take  I  drachm  of  powdered  niter,  i  drachm 
powdered  opium,  I  drachm  powdered  camphor,  mix  into  a  ball,  give  once 
daily  before  feeding  and  allow  rest  after  feeding.  Rub  my  Oster-Cocus 
Liniment  daily,  or  every  other  day,  on  the  throat  to  stimulate  the  muscles 
thereof;  don't  work  immediately  after  feeding.  (True  roaring  cannot  be 
cured.)      When  you  blister  you  can  omit  the  Oster-Cocus. 

Windy. — Due  to  indigestion.  Feed  bran  mashes  and  Renovator  Powders 
once  or  twice  a  day  and  put  a  Renovator  Powder  in  regular  feed  once  a 
day.  Do  not  feed  corn.  Exercise  daily ;  sprinkle  the  hay  with  lime  water. 
Give  water  before  feeding,  not  after.  Do  not  work  immediately  after  a 
meal.     Lump  of  rock  salt  in  manger.     A  Physic  Ball  is  often  desirable. 

Dropsy  of  the  Skin. — Usually  occurs  in  the  belly,  sheath  or  breast.  Give 
tonic  treatment;  bran  mashes  and  carrots  and  soft  food,  little  or  no  grain. 
Fresh  water  and  air.  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  for  two  weeks  at  a 
time;  regular  but  not  heavy  exercise. 

Dropsy  means  accumulations  of  water  in  the  cavities  of  the  body,  belly, 
sheath  and  legs ;  is  simply  general  debility,  caused  by  neglect  and  careless- 
ness. Treatment  of  any  of  its  local  indications  is  to  build  up  the  run- 
down condition;  good  care,  regular  exercise,  plenty  of  good  food,  with 
Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily;  bran  mashes  and  soft  food  to 
keep  the  bowels  open. 

Constipation. — If  you  feed  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  at  intervals  of  a 
month,  for  a  week  or  ten  days,  once  or  twice  daily,  with  occasional  bran 
mash,   it  won't  occur. 

Treatment. — Give  one  of  Daniels'  Physic  Balls;  warm  bran  mashes  three 
times  a  week  or  more,  adding  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  to  each,  and

be  sure  to  give   Renovator   Powders   twice   daily  in   feed   for  two  or  three 
weeks.     Give  soft  and  green  food  when  possible. 

Crib  Biting. — Separate  from  other  horses. 
Have  iron  fittings  if  possible.  Use  muzzle. 
Feed  soft,  easily  digested  food,  bran  mashes 
often,  once  a  day,  mixing  one  of  Daniels'  Ren- 
ovator Powders  therein,  and  be  sure  to  feed 
Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  for  a  couple  of 
weeks  at  a  time;  chop  the  hay,  and  wet  with 
lime  water.  Avoid  bad  hay,  musty  oats,  etc. 
Improve  the  digestion.  Renovator  Powders  are 
the  main   thing  to   do  this. 

Wind  Sucking  (Incurable). — May  be  prevented 
in  various  ways.  Take  a  leather  strap  and  stud 
with  sharp  pointed  nail,  adjusted  opposite  the 
lower  portion  of  the  jaw,  or  a  muzzle  prevent- 
ing the  seizure  of  food  with  the  teeth.  Horses 
given  to  wind  sUcking  and  cribbing  are  liable  to 
colic  and  indigestion. 

Jaundice. — Excessive  bile ;  give  a  Physic  Ball  and  correct  the  diet,  adding 
my  Renovator  Powders  to  the  feed  morning  and  night,  for  a  week  or  two. 
Avoid  dry  and  bulky  foods.     Give  roots,  mashes,  and   soft   foods. 


Diseases  of  the  Urinary  Organs 

Urinary  Organs. — Inflammation  of  Kidneys. — Caused  by  strains,  overwork, 
slipping,   musty  hay  or   feed,   exposure,   too   powerful   diuretics,   etc. 

Symptoms. — Feverish,  disinclined  to  move  about,  sensitive  to  pressure  on 
the  spine,  stands  awkward,  with  hind  legs  wide  apart,  urinates  in  small 
quantities,  generally  of  high  color  and  sometimes  bloody,  pulse  is  quick  and 
hard  at  first,  becoming  later  small.  As  a  test,  introduce  the  hand  into  the 
rectum,  and  if  the  bladder  is  empty,  without  tenderness  or  heat,  inflamma- 
tion of  the  kidneys  is  present. 

Treatment. — Give  30-drop  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops 
every  thirty  minutes  for  three  hours,  or  until  fever  is  reduced ;  give  Physic 
Ball  or  Linseed  Oil  and  Enemas  of  warm  soapy  water;  foment  the  loins 
with  hot  water  (add  2  tablespoonfuls  of  my  Liniment  Powder  for  best 
results)  or  apply  Oster-Cocus  freely  to  the  loins.  Soft  foods,  keeping  bowels 
open  by  adding  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daijy ;  if  in  summer, 
a  month  at  pasture  will  do  wonders. 

Excessive  Stalling. — Caused  by  musty  feed,  exposure,  etc. 

Symptoms. — Much  thirsty  loses  condition  fast,  coat  rough,  passing  larger 
amount  of  clear  urine,'  and  often.  Easily  cured  if  prompt  action  ensues. 
Entire  change  of  feed,  clean  hay,  bran  mashes,  roots,  carrots,  etc.  Add  one 
cf  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily;  keep  bowels  open.  A  few  doses  of 
No.  1  Colic  Cure  each  morning  is  also  of  benefit. 

Suppressed   Urine.— Retention  of  urine. — Caused  by  continuous  action,  not

giving  the  horse  time  to  urinate  or  answer  the  demands  of  nature,  spasm  of 
the  neck  of  the  bladder,  etc. 

Treatment. — Use  catheter  at  once,  and  give  a  few  doses  of  No.  I  Colic 
Cure  at  intervals  of  20  minutes  for  two  hours,  Renovator  Powders  twice 
daily,  bran  mashes  and  soft  foods,  Oster-Cocus  to  the  loins;   rub  it  in  well. 

Bloody  Urine. — Usually  resulting  from  injuries,  violence,  undesirable 
teed,  etc. 

•  Treatment. —  Plenty  linseed  tea,  given  as  a  drench;  three  or  four  30-drop 
doses  of  No.  1  Colic  Cure  at  intervals  of  30  minutes  morning  and  evening; 
keep  bowels  open  by  feeding  soft  foods,  roots,  bran  mashes,  adding  one  of 
my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily. 

Inflammation  of  Bladder  may  be  acute  or  chronic,  slight  or  severe;  caused 
by  irritating  medicines,  stone,  septic  poison,  retained  urine,  etc. 

Many  condition  powders  on  the  market  contain  saltpeter,  resin,  niter  and 
other  dangerous  ingredients,  which  often  cause  inflammation  to  the  urinary 
organs.     Beware  of  such. 

Symptoms. — Pains  much  like  colic,  kick  at  abdomen,  looks  at  flanks,  ef- 
forts to  urinate,  with  little  or  no  results,  with  indications  of  pain,  groan- 
ing,  etc. 

Treatment. — First  overcome  and  remove  the  cause,  completely  evacuate 
the  bladder  with  catheter  (be  sure  to  disinfect  the  instrument  before  using), 
wash  out  the  bladder  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (one-fourth  teaspoon 
in  two  quarts  of  warm  water),  twice  daily,  give  30-drop  doses  of  my  Fever 
Drops  at  intervals  of  half  an  hour  for  three  or  four  hours;  drench  with 
slippery  elm  tea;  a  warm  injection  of  this  same  sort  of  tea  may  be  given  by 
rectum.  My  Colic  Drops  in  regular  doses  every  thirty  minutes  at  the  begin- 
ning of  treatment  will  allay  pain ;  foment  the  loins  with  hot  applications,  after 
which  rub  on  a  little  of  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment.  Feed  for  condition,  add 
my  Renovator  Powders  daily,  and  after  each  feed  give  a  dose  of  my  No.  1 
Colic  Cure  for  a  week  or  two. 

Swollen  Sheath. — Cleanse  sheath  by  washing  with  solution  of  Carbo- 
Negus  (one-fourth  teaspoonful  to  two  quarts  water)  ;  feed  bran  mashes 
once  a  day  for  six  days,  adding  one  Renovator  Powder,  and  for  two  weeks 
give  one  Renovator  Powder  night  and  morning  in  the_  feed.  Sometimes  a 
Physic  Ball  is  required.  The  system  wants  cleaning  in  case  of  this  sort. 
Be  sure  to  clean  the  sheath  thoroughly  its  entire  length. 

Sheath,  Contraction. — Either  in  front  or  behind  the  yard  preventing  the 
drawing  of  it  back  into  the  sheath. 

Treatment. — Administer  coM  water  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  freely  to  the 
inflamed  sheath,  after  which  apply  sweet  or  olive  oil  liberally  to  the  parts, 
being  careful  in  manipulating,  and  you  will  generally  overcome  the  trouble. 

If  this  occurs  in  old  horses  from  paralysis,  there  seems  to  be  no  cure. 
Amputation  by  surgeon   is   the   resort. 

Inflammation  of  the  Yard,  should  be  treated  heroically.  Cleanse  first  with 
a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  then  apply  2  drachms  of  chlorate  of  zinc, 
mixed  with  a  pint  of  water,  wrapping  the  parts  in  a  cloth  wet  with  this 
mixture,  repeating  daily  to  destroy  the  granulations  which  may  have 
formed. 

Swollen  Scrotum, — When   not  caused  by  rupture,  it  is  a  debilitated  con-

dition.  Give  Physic  Ball  and  feed  bran  mashes,  good  oats,  clean  hay,  and 
give  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  in  food  for  a  tew 
weeks. 

In  watching  symptoms  of  ills,  note  in  particular  the  Eyes.,  Tongue, 
Throat,  Pulse,  Chest,  Heart,  Breath  and  Breathing,  Discharge  from  Mouth 
or  Nose,  Skin,  Hair,  Attitude  and  General  Appearance.  A  close  attention  to 
detai1s  of  this  nature  will  aid  in  quick  repair  of  the  damage  or  threatened 
attack. 

In  locating  lameness  note  every  particular  of  each  "four  corners''  of  the 
animal,  position  of  each  foot  or  leg  when  standing  and  in  motion,  turning 
and    backing. 

INJURIES  AND  DISEASES  OF  THE  HEAD  AND  MOUTH 

for  which  my  Specific  Medicines  are  recommended.  First  remember  the  loss 
of  any  portion  of  lip,  cheeks  or  tongue  makes  the  horse  worthless ;  there- 
fore, try  all  before  using  the  knife. 

When  Cuts  take  place,  the  parts  should  be  washed  clean  with  solution 
Daniels'  Carbo-Negus.  The  parts  drawn  together  and  secured  by  bands,  and 
efforts  made  to  secure  perfect  rest,  and  apply  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion 
to  heal.     Feed  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  for  tonic  and  strength. 

Lacerated  Wounds  are  not  so  easily  closed,  but  do  so  when  possible. 
Dress  and  clean  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  and  apply  my  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion  freely  to  heal.     Feed  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  for  b1ood. 

Lampas. — A  swelling  or  projection  of  the  palate  behind  the  front  teeth, 
often  extending  below  the  teeth  and  the  horse  is  unable  to  eat,  the  food 
dropping  out  when  the  animal   attempts  to   chew  it. 

Treatment. — Add  a  tablespoonful  of  saltpeter  to  each  pailful  of  water 
given  the  horse  to  drink.  If  the  swellings  are  particularly  troublesome  open 
with  the  point  of  a  knife,  or  touch  with  a  stick  of  nitrate  of  silver.  Apply 
Wonder  Worker  to  heal.  Feed  bran  mashes,  adding  one  of  Daniels'  Reno- 
vator Powders ;  nothing  will  assist  so  much  in  building  up  the  horse's 
strength  as  my  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  daily  in  the  feed. 

Vives. — Enlargement  of  the  glands  of  lower  jaw.  Paint  with  tincture 
of  iodine,  and  build  up  the  system  by  proper  feed,  using  one  or  two  of  my 
Renovator  Powders  daily  in  the  feed ;  a  Physic  Ball  or  a  pint  of  linseed  oil 
will  be  useful  to  open  the  bowels. 

Barbs,  Swellings,  caused  by  obstructions  to  the  salivary  glands.  Apply  a 
stick  of  nitrate  of  silver  for  a  moment  every  day,  give  soft  foods,  bran 
mashes,  adding  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  daily  to  feed;  give  one  of 
my  Physic  Balls  or  linseed  oil. 

Bleeding  Gums. — Clean  out  the  teeth  daily  and  wash  the  gums  with  so- 
lution of  Carbo-Negus  (teaspoon  to  quart  of  water)  twice  a  day  and  apply 
my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 

Bad  Teeth.— Remove  the  offending  members. 

Tooth  Cough. — A  peculiar  cough,  loud  and  prolonged,  occurs  in  horses 
cutting  the  sixth  molar.  Wash  the  mouth  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (tea- 
spoon to  quart  of  water),  careful  diet,  good  hay,  grass  when  possible,  a 
pint  of  linseed  oil.  My  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  daily,  add  an 
ounce  of  bicarbonate  of  soda  to  the  water  once  daily.

Abcess  or  Tumors  on  the  Side  of  the  Face,  if  caused  by  foreign  objects,  like 
thorns,  nails,  etc.  Such  articles  should  be  removed.  Bring  to  a  head  with  poul- 
tice; open.  Wash  or  cleanse  with  Carbo-Negus,  and  apply  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion  to  head.  Feed  Renovator  Powders  morning  and  night  for  condi- 
tion and  blood. 

Paralysis  of  the  Lip. — In  recent  cases.  Incessant  applications  of  my 
Liniment  Powder,  hot;  alternate  with  Daniels'  Liniment  (Oster-Cocus) 
externally.  Good  food ;  box  stall ;  perfect  rest.  My  Renovator  Powder 
twice  daily.     Sometimes  my  Absorbent  Blister  will  give  good   results. 

The  Tongue. — Many  horses  are  injured  for  life  by  the  thoughtless  and 
careless  practice  of  running  the  halter  rope  through  the  mouth,  thus  bind- 
ing the  tongue  by  a  tightening  noose.  Sometimes  hitching  in  this  manner, 
if  the  horse  hangs  back,  the  tongue  or  jaw  suffers,  causing  bruise,  strangu- 
lation and  inflammation  and  gangrene ;  losing  one-half  by  sloughing  or 
causes  a  state  of  paralysis  to  tongue  or  lips.  Some  well-intentioned  men 
cut,  tear  or  bruise  the  tongue  and  lips  beyond  repair  in  giving  medicine, 
the  tongue  having  been  pulled  entirely  out  in  the  balling  operation.  In 
care  of  horses,  avoid  these  things. 

Treatment  for  Injury  to  Tongue  and  Mouth. — Wash  the  abrasion  or  cut 
clean  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus.  Apply  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion 
freely  to  heal.  When  portions  have  been  separated,  every  effort  must  be 
made  towards  saving  the  organ  from  sloughing  by  diligent  treatment,  local 
and  general;  good  feed;  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  in  warm  bran 
mashes,  soft  foods,  cut  roots  and  chopped  hay.  Wash  clean  with  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus,  and  apply  freeby  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion.  Repeat  ex- 
ternal treatment  two  or  three  times  daily,  or  oftener  in  serious  cases. 

Big  Head. — Is  incurable. 

Staggers. — In  horses,  caused  by  defective  teeth,  worms,  debility,  irregular 
or  improper  feeding,  ravenous  feeding,  etc.  In  colts,  from  teething,  re- 
moval from  dam  too  early,  cold  milk,  suckling  when  dam  is  overheated,  etc 

Symptoms. — When  not  engorged,  loss  of  appetite  or  a  capricious  one, 
tendency  to  eat  filth,  sore  mouth,  much  thirst,  hide-bound,  dry  or  scurfy 
skin,  bowels  irregular,  much  wind,  frequently  a  dry,  short  cough  and  some- 
times diarrhoea,  feces  dark  color  with  fetid  odor;  urine  is  dark  in  color, 
and  leaves  a  red  sediment,  look  for  worms;  this  condition  leads  to  giddi- 
ness and  fits. 

Treatment. — Give  a  Physic  Ball,  follow  with  a  pint  of  linseed  oil;  look 
to  the  mouth  and  teeth,  see  they  are  in  proper  condition;  give  attention 
to  the  feed,  make  a  change,  give  roots,  good  oats,  no  corn  or  meal,  clean 
bright  hay,  sprinkled  with  a  little  salt  water,  have  a  salt  brick,  convenient 
for  use,  feed  regularly  moderate  quantity;  bran  mashes  are  pi  great  help; 
add  to  the  feed  for  a  week  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day,  then 
one  daily;  fresh  air.  pure  drinking  water,  sanitary  surroundings.  If  colicky 
pains,  give  one  to  three  doses  of  my  Colic  Cure  after  feeding. 

Staggers. —  If  from  engorgement,  which  is  shown  by  a  pawing  of  the  fore- 
feet, the  near  one  in  particular,  belching,  quick  pulse,  hard  breathing, 
saliva  dribbling  from  the  mouth,  give  the  same  treatment  as  before  men- 
tioned, but  give  two  to  four  doses  of  Colic  Cure  first,  and  for  purge,  give 
one  pint  linseed  oil,  into  which  put  25  drops  of  Castor  Oil  and  give  a  warm 
injection  of  soapy  water.

In  colts,  simply  remove  the  cause,  nature  will  do  the  rest,  unless  they 
show  colicky  pains  and  scour,  in  which  case  give  three  or  four  small  doses 
of  Colic  Cure  each  day,  six  to  ten  drops  each  at  intervals  of  half  hour 
Staggers,  Mad  or  Blind,  is  a  congestion  or  inflammation  of  the  brain,  caused 
by  exposure  to  heat,  blows,  suppression  of  urine,  poisoning,  tumors,  hard 
driving  when  over-fat,  pressure  of  ill-fitting  collar,  worms,  feeding  on  slops, 
etc.  Treat  for  worms  when  you  do  not  get  results  desired  and  as  a  final 
effort. 

Symptoms.— Dull,  listless,  sleepy,  breathes  slowly,  snores,  slow  pulse, 
staggers  in  his  walk,  looks  excited,  shivers,  seems  frightened,  rears  and 
elevates  his  head,  eyes  yellow  and  bloodshot,  ears  and  feet  hot  and  cold  by 
turns,  eyes  fixed,  has  convulsions,  staggers,  perhaps  falls,  hangs  tongue 
out  of  mouth,  has  spasms  and  palsy,  urine  scant,  highly  colored.  Bleeding 
is  recommended,  but  this  to  the  layman  is  no  easy  task,  hence  give  a  quick 
physic,  my  Physic  Ball  followed  at  once  by  pint  of  linseed  oil.  Place  the 
animal  in  a  dark  box  stall,  with  plenty  fresh  water  to  drink;  a  sponge  fixed 
at  the  top  of  the  head,  kept  wet  with  ice  water,  give  three  to  five  30-drop 
doses  of  my  Fever  Drops  at  intervals  of  half  hour.  Give  no  feed  until  re- 
covery or  until  conditions  are  much  better;  then  particular  attention  should 
be  paid  in  this  direction.  The  cause  should  be  found  and  obviated.  My 
Renovator  Powders  should  be  given  twice  daily  in  the  feed,  and  a  little 
Strychnine  may  be  given  daily;  begin  with  two  or  three  grains  twice 
a  day,  increasing  the  dose  every  two  or  three  days  about  a  grain,  until  you 
give,  say  twelve  grains,  during  the  day;  then  discontinue  it. 

Megrims  and  Fits  occur  in  debilitated  animals.  Cause.— Overwork  ^when 
too    fat,    badly   fitting   collar,    sun,  exposure,*  constipation,   worms,  etc. 

Symptoms. — While  working,  suddenly  stops,  reels,  trembles,  perhaps  falls, 
remains  a  few  moments  more  or  less  insensible,  gets  on  his  feet,  still  ex- 
cited and  nervous,  remaining  ?r>  for  hours  or  days.  There  seem  to  be 
no   spasms,  just  a  fit,  which   occur  more  or  less   frequently. 

Treatment. — Remove  the  cause,  collar  in  particular,  cov er  the  eyes,  ice  or 
cold  water  to  head,  place  in  a  quiet,  dark  stable,  give  three  or  four  doses  of 
my  Fever  Drops  at  intervals  of  half  an  hour,  a  Physic  Ball,  and  proper 
attention  to  feed.  If  fat,  cut  d'own  the  feed;  if  heat,  protect  from  the  sun; 
if  the  legs  are  cold,  rub  them  with  Daniels'  Liniment  (Oster-Cocus  Oil). 
Give  attention  to  feed,  no  corn  or  meal;  limit  the  hay,  but  have  quality 
first  class ;  sanitary  stable,  pure  water,  bran  mashes,  clean  oats  and  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  in  the  feed.     Such  horses  are  not  safe  for  family  use. 

Sunstroke  comes  on  suddenly.  The  animal  stops,  drops  his  head,  begins 
to  stagger,  and  soon  falls  to  the  ground  unconscious.  Breathes  hard,  pulse 
is  slow  and  irregular ;  cold  sweats  break  out  in  sections  over  the  surface  of 
the  body.  The  horse  often  dies  without  recovering  consciousness.  Fat, 
feeble  and  old  horses,  and  young,  exposed  to  summer  sun  and  heat  with- 
out shade  for  the  head  are  easily  overcome;  unless  relieved  palsy  and  death 
may  occur,  or  rarely  in  cases  of  recovery  will  the  horse  be  as  good  as 
before. 

Treatment. — Give  my  Fever  Drops  (30-drop  doses)  every  15  minutes;  from  3 
to  6  doses.  As  soon  as  possible  get  the  animal  into  a  shady  spot;  drench 
with  cold  water,  a  bucket  or  hose  may  be  used,  and  the  head  and  neck,  in 
particular  douched;  give  six  ounces  of  whisky  in  pint  of  water.     Rub  the  legs

with  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment,  and  after  recovery  give  rest  and  quiet;  light 
but  good  feed,  plenty  water  and  my  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  daily. 

Heat  Exhaustion. — The  animal  drives  logy,  and  requires  urging.  Gen- 
erally perspiration  is  checked.  Soon  he  becomes  weak  in  his  gait;  breath 
hurried  and  panting;  eyes  watery  and  bloodshot;  nostrils  dilated  and  highly 
reddened;  pulse  rapid  and  weak;  the  heart  bounding,  followed  by  uncon- 
sciousness. 

Treatment. — In  this  case  wring  out  cloths  in  hot  Liniment  Powder  or 
even  hot  water,  and  apply  them  to  the  head  and  spine ;  give  six  ounces  of 
whisky  in  a  pint  of  water.  Give  Fever  Drops  as  in  sunstroke.  Rub  the 
limbs  briskly  with  Oster-Cocus.  When  recovering,  cither  in  sunstroke  or 
heat  exhaustion,  the  system  needs  tonic.  Nothing  better  than  my  Renova- 
tor Powders.  Give  one  morning  and  evening  in  the  feed.  Give  bran  mashes 
frequently;  good  feed  and  air  and  care. 

Prevention. — In  hot  weather  horses  should  have  wet  sponges  or  light 
sunshades  on  the  head  when  at  work,  or  the  head  may  be  sponged  with  cold 
water  often.  Never  feed  or  water  in  excess  in  hot  weather.  Stables  should 
be  well  ventilated;  as  cool  as  possible.  Animals  that  are  debilitated,  or  ex- 
hausted from  work  or  disease,  should  receive  treatment  to  build  up  the 
system.  Avoid  constipated  conditions;  feed  bran  mashes  with  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  often  during  the  hot  weather,  and  your  horses  will  not  be 
liable  to  these  attacks.

Hints  Worth  Remembering 

They  mean  money  to  you  and  comfort  to  your  stock. 

i.  Always  keep  in  your  stable  Daniels'  remedies. — They  are  handy,  in- 
expensive and  useful.  Even  if  you  depend  usually  upon  a  veterinary,  he 
can't  always  be  handy,  and  the  life  of  a  horse  often  depends  upon  immediate 
help. 

2.  When  a  horse  is  overheated  and  fatigued  from  labor,  walk  him  about 
easy,  dry  with  straw  or  cloth ;  rub  his  legs  well.  Apply  a  few  drops  of 
Qster-Cocus  to  his  legs ;  it  will  prevent  lameness.  Give  him  a  dose  of 
Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops,  they  prevent  cold.  Feed  when  cool  enough, 
adding  a  Renovator  Powder.  Many  times,  this  care  will  save  you  a  good 
horse. 

3.  Your  stable  should  be  kept  clean  and  disinfected  with  Carbo-Negus ; 
well  ventilated ;    avoid   draughts.   Keep  crib  clean  and  free  from  dust. 

4.  Do  not  use  ground  and  patent  feeds.  They  are  expensive,  and  many- 
are  dangerous,  often  composed  of  sweepings,  talc,  marble,  plaster  and  other 
weight-giving  properties. 

5.  Whenever  you  notice  a  gall  or  sore  on  body  or  legs,  at  once  put  on 
Daniels'  Wonder  Worker.     It  will  prevent  an  ugly  sore. 

6.  Never  be  tempted  to  overload  your  team.  It  causes  blindness,  strains, 
splints,  spavins  and  many  painful  and  often  fatal  diseases. 

7.  Have  your  harness  and  collar  fit  in  every  part.  Wash  the  inside  of 
collar  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  dry,  and  oil  to  keep  it  soft.  Do  not 
let  oil  remain  on  the  surface  of  the  leather. 

8.  Be  well  provided  with  blankets,  and  use  freely  on  the  horse.  You 
will  have  less  colds,  distemper  and  disease. 

35 


«— * r^» 

9.  Never  startle  the  horse  by  striking  him  suddenly.  It  causes  him  to 
slip,  strain,  and  otherwise  injures  him. 

10.  Never  allow  your  horse  to  stand  on  fermenting  manure.  Causes 
thrush  and  lameness. 

11..  Disease  of  Wounds  in  feet  or  legs  soon  become  dangerous  if  neg- 
lected.    Daniels'  Liniments  are  always   of  value  for  these  troubles. 

12.  Use  the  whip  for  ornament  only. 

13.  Old  horses  lose  their  teeth,  therefore  bruise  oats  and  corn,  chop  the 
hay.     They  can't  get  store  teeth. 

14.  Never  put  a  cold,  frosty  bit  into  a  horse's  mouth;  it  is  inhuman  and 
brutal. 

15.  Don't  whip  when  he  shies  or  stumbles ;  encouragement  gets  better 
results. 

16.  Reduce  the  quantity  of  feed  when  the  horse  is  idle,  if  it  is  only  for 
one  day. 

17.  Don't  feed  corn  or  meal  to  horses  in  poor  health,  or  when  treating  for 
worms  or  lameness;    it  is  for  healthy,  hard-working  horses  only. 

18.  Don't  try  to  control  the  horse  unless  you  can  control  yourself.  Don't 
quarrel  with  your  horse. 

19.  Dark  Stables  make  blind,  shying  and  stumbling  horses. 
Never  let  your  horse  stand  facing  the  wind  on  a  cold  day. 

Always  have  a  box  of  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  under  the  wagon-seat ;  thou- 
sands of  horses  die  every  year  from  colic,  because  of  neglect  of  this  pre- 
caution.    You  cannot  always  wait  for  the  veterinary. 

Don't  overcheck,  don't  overload,  don't  overdrive,  don't  beat,  don't  neg- 
lect, don't  abuse  your  horse;    any  and  all  costs  you  money. 

Keep  my  remedies  in  your  stable,  they  will  repay  you  a  hundred  fold. 
Don't  try  to  use  something  "just  as  good";    use  the  best. 

Imagine  the  force  with  which  your  horse  strikes  the  ground  with  his 
fore  feet,  going  at  full  speed.  Is  it  to  be  wondered  at,  when  his  minutely 
constructed  feet  flinch  and  become  tender  and  he  has  to  quit?  Daniels' 
Liniment  Powder  will  furnish  relief  quickly  and  safely.

WORKER 


£>^AiiZt  -Daniels 

WONDER  WORKER 
EDTIDNf 

The  most  wonderful  healer  ever  known  for  man 
or  beast.  Heals  all  kinds  of  sores  or  wounds,  either 
new  or  old. 

Nature's  cure  for  Burns,  Scalds,  Piles,  Chafing, 
Ingrowing  Nails,  Sores,  Cuts,  Salt  Rheum,  Sore 
Shoulders  and  Harness  Galls ;  used  with  my  Gall- 
Cura,  it  is  a  positive  cure  for  Scratches,  Thrush, 
Bruised  Knees,  Calked  Hoof  and  Quarter  Cracks, 
Nail  in  the  foot,  cuts  from  barbed  wire,  and  all  flesh 
wounds  and  sores  of  whatever  nature  or  kind ; 
nothing  in  existence  equals  this  truly  Wonder 
Worker.  Cures  Harness  Galls,  and  keep  working 
the  horse.  Stops  bleeding  and  heals  any  ordinary 
wounds  without  soreness  or  festering. 
„     ..    .  - .   .        .  This    lotion   is   rightly  named,    as   it   is    the   most 

Healing  Liniment  wonderful  healer  known  to  man.     It  is  so  mild  and 

still  so  powerful  that  its  action  creates  the  greatest  surprise  among  people 
who  have  the  most  extensive  experience  in  treating  sores  and  wounds 
of  every  kind.  While  so  soothing  -as  to  be  used  as  a  gargle  for  sore  throat 
or  even  a  chafing  baby  with  no  evil  effects,  it  is  still  powerful  enough  to  eat 
out  proud  flesh  in  a  few  hours,  and  heal  sores  of  many  years'  standing, 
that  have  resisted  the  most  heroic  treatment.  It  will  act  with  the  most 
surprising  results  on  flesh  wounds,  stopping  the  flow  of  blood  at  once  and 
cauterizing  the  flesh,  forming  a  coating  almost  instantly  that  prevents  the  air 
striking  the  lacerated  or  raw  flesh.  The  alcohol  used  in  this  preparation 
will,  in  some  cases,  cause  for  a  moment  a  slight  smarting;  but  this  is  over  in 
a  moment  and  is  .succeeded  by  the  most  cooling  sensation. 

This  lotion  is  a  great  departure  from  all  former  applications  of  which 
medical  work  gives  us  any  knowledge.  It  contains  no  poisonous  ingredients 
whatever.  Its  ingredients  are  so  common-sense  and  simple,  as  to  recom- 
mend itself  at  once  to  all  who  know  its  composition.  I  recommend 
it  in  every  kind  of  soreness  of  flesh  or  muscles,  in  man  or  beast,  that 
can  be  reached  by  an  outward  application.  No  medicine  for  soreness  ever 
discovered  compares  with  it.  Words  fail  to  accurately  describe  its  remark- 
able and  wondrous  healing  power.  While  competitors  are  sounding  the 
praises  of  their  "cure-alls"  on  golden  bugles  and  silver  trumpets,  we  are 
relieving _  the  distressed  and  "healing  those  who  are  almost  without  hope, 
causing  joy  to  succeed  sorrow  in  thouands  of  hearts  in  every  country  in 
the  civilized  world.  I  am  daily  in  receipt  of  heartfelt  and  thankful  let- 
ters of  recommendation  of  this  true  Wonder  Worker  from  the  poor  and 
illiterate,  as  well  as  the  most  highly  educated  and  wealthy,  and  in  almost 

37 


D^  A*  CBaisiels1  Medicines 


every  language.  I  do  not  recommend  it  for  deep-seated  lameness  of  the 
muscles  or  where  a  counter-irritant  liniment  is  required,  but  for  all  sprain^ 
of  the  superficial  muscles  and  every  kind  of  soreness  of  the  flesh,  whether 
the  skin  is  abraised  or  not,  it  will  always  do  its  wonderful  work. 

Flesh  Wounds  and  Abrasions  (Cuts). — Apply  Wonder  Worker  freely  as 
quickly  as  possible.  If  the  wound  is  deep,  inject  the  liniment  into  its  deep- 
est part  with  a  syringe.  A  sponge  or  piece  of  oakum  well  saturated  with 
Wonder  Worker  may  be  bound  on  the  wound,  with  good  results. 

Scratches,    Mud   Fever,    Cracked    Heels. — Ascertain    and    re- 
move the  causes.  First  have  clean,  dry  stable  and  stall,  fresh 
air,  pure  water,  proper  food  and  a  tonic  for  the  blood.     Clean- 
.  liness  is  of  first  importance.     Clean  the  heels  with  a  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus,  two  teaspoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  warm  water; 
:  in  bad  cases  poultice  with  linseed  meal,  into  which  put  a  few 
!  drops  of  Carbo-Negus ;  afterwards  saturate  a  bandage  and  keep 
wet    with      Daniels'    Wonder    Worker   Lotion  ;      reduce    the 
grain ;  cooling  food,  roots,  mashes,  and  one  of  Daniels'  Reno- 
vator Powders  twice  daily  for  a  week,  then  one  powder  daily; 
in  chronic  cases  give  Daniels"  Physic  Ball.         ttt4«%ata 

Mallenders  and  Sallenders.  —  Scurvy 
patches  on  the  knee  and  hock,  degenerat- 
ing with  neglect  into  ugly  sores.  Wash 
with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  or  bathe 
with  hot  Liniment  Powder ;  dry  up  with 
applications  of  Wonder  Worker  Lotion- 
Give  Physic  Ball ;  feed  bran  mashes  and 
soft  food,  and  give  one  of  Daniels'  Reno- 
vator Powders  night  and  morning  for  a 
couple  of  weeks. 

My  Renovator,  properly  given,  would 
have  prevented  these  disagreeable  skin 
ills.  ^ 

Bruised  Knees  or  Ankles. — Apply  freely  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 
Bandage  when  possible.  If  much  swollen  or  inflamed,  hot  applications  of 
Liniment  Powder,  or  even  hot  water  will  prove  beneficial. 

Sprains,  Strains  (Superficial)  or  any  soreness  of  the  flesh  or  muscles.— 
First  bathe  two  or  three  times  daily  with  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker,  rubbing 
in  well.     Bandage  if  needed,  it  will  not  blister. 

Saddle  or  Harness  Galls.— First  cleanse  with  a  wash  of  Carbo-Negus 
(tablespoonful  to  quart  of  water).  This  kills  the  poison.  Apply  the  Wonder 
Worker  with  a  small  sponge  at  night.  It's  sure,  and  will  not  leave  a  scar 
or  white  hair.  This  liniment  will  not  smart  or  blister  under  any  circum- 
stances, but  cools  the  fevered  flesh  and  forms  a  coating  over  the  raw  spot 
at  once ;  repeat  several  times  daily  until  cured.  Feed  Renovator  Powders, 
once  or  twice  daily,  in  bran  mash  or  food,  for  blood  or  tonic.  Keep  the 
harness  cleaned. 

Tender  Skin. — I  recommend  saturating  the  hair  and  skin  on  breast  and 
back  of  green  horses  a  few  times,  before  working  them,  with  Wonder 
Worker,  as  it  will  toughen  and  harden  the  skin. 

38 


^■T *_, 

Tender  Shoulders.— Perhaps  the  draft  is  too  high.  Lower  the  staples  in 
harness  a  trifle.  To  toughen  skin,  bathe  the  shoulder  freely  for  a  few  days 
with  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 

Chaps.— Knee  or  hocks.  Give  Physic  Ball ;  reduce  grain  feed ;  give 
mashes,  roots,  non-stimulating  food;  exercise  easy,  hand  rub  the  legs  with 
Daniels'  Wonder  Worker,  and  bandage.  Be  sure  to  feed  Daniels'  Reno- 
vator Powders  daily  for  blood  and  tonic.  This  liniment  does  not  blister 
when  you  bandage.  _  , 

Over-Reach. — Remove  jagged  ends  with  knife  or  scissors;  apply  Daniels 
Wonder  Worker  Lotion  freely;  bind  up  in  Wonder  Worker.  Prompt  atten- 
tion and  good  care  will  save  you  a  quittor.  Feed  my  Renovator  Powders  daily 
for  tonic  and  blood. 

Proud  Flesh  cannot  exist  with  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker;  saturate  freely, 
binding  on  and  keeping  wet  with  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker. 

Calked  Hoof  or  Quarters.  Track  Horses.— Apply  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker 
as  soon  as  possible  after  the  accident,  wetting  the  part  thoroughly.  It  will 
soon  close  the  wound  and  prevent  all  soreness.  Hundreds  of  trotters  in  races 
have  grabbed  their  quarters  badly,  and  been  laid  by  for  weeks,  if  not  perma- 
nently injured.  A  timely  use  of  my  liniment  will  work  like  a  charm,  and  the 
horse  will  go  on  and  finish  his  race,  and  never  take  a  lame  step  from  any 
ordinary  cut.    Always  have  a  bottle  in  the  kit ;  it's  handy. 

If  not  cared  for  at  time  of  accident,  soaking  in  solution  of  hot  Liniment 
Powder  (two  spoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  water)  will  remove  the  soreness  and 
swelling,  and  hasten  a  recovery. 

Prick  in  the  Foot,  Puncture,  Nail  in  the  Foot. — Remove  the  nail.  With  a 
sharp  knife  cut  out  around  the  hole  in  a  tunnel  shape ;  be  careful  to  go  to 
the  very  bottom  of  the  puncture  and  cut  large  enough.  Wash  and  syringe 
out  with  a  solution  of  CARBO-NEGUS  (one  teaspoonful  to  a  quart  of 
water)  to  destroy  germs,  microbes  or  poison.  Hold  the  foot  up,  pour  in- 
and  fill  the  hole  with  Wonder  Worker  Lotion,  letting  it  soak  in.  Do  this 
last  three  times  daily.  Fill  a  sponge  and  bind  it  over  the  wound  by  putting 
a  strap  of  zinc  or  thin  iron  over  it  and  springing  it  under  the  shoe.-"  If  in- 
flammation sets  in,  soak  the  foot  in  hot  Liniment  Powder  (spoonful  to 
quart  of  water).  If  a  pus  forms,  cut  deep  enough  to  allow  its  discharge 
and  cleanse  with  Carbo-Negus  three  or  four  times  a  day,  afterwards  filling 
with  Wonder  Worker.  Keep  it  clean  and  free  from  germs  and  you  need 
not  fear  lockjaw  and  swelling  of  the  leg. 

Greased  Heels. — First,  cleanliness,  fresh  air,  pure 
water,  good  food,  and  a  Tonic  for  the  blood  are 
absolutely  necessary  for  success.  Give  one  of  Dan- 
iels' Physic  Balls  to  clear  the  system;  soak  in  a 
solution  of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus,  two  teapoonfuls 
to  a  quart  of  warm  water,  for  half  an  hour;  saturate 
and  bandage,  and  keep  wet  with  Daniels'  Wonder 
Worker  Lotion.  In  cases  of  long  standing,  poul- 
tice with  linseed  meal  into  which  put  a  few  drops 
of  Carbo-Negus.  (To  destroy  "Grapes"  which 
often  prove  obstinate,  cut  off  or  burn  off  with  lunar 
caustic.)  If  the  frog  is  diseased  it  must  be  pared 
to  the  quick,  and  treated  as  above ;  change  the  dress-

ing  once  a  day  at  least.  Give  soft,  cooling  food,  bran  mashes,  bright,  clean 
hay  and  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  daily  in  the  feed; 
they  act  on  the  blood  and  kidneys,  give  strength  and  make  flesh- 

Thrush. — A  common  ailment,  due  largely  to  neglect  and  surroundings.  No 
time  should  be  lost  as  no  case  however  slight  ought  to  be  neglected. 

Treatment. — Clean  out  and  cut  away  all  dead  or  diseased  or  detached 
parts;  soak  the  foot  for  half  an  hour  in  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (two 
teaspoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  water).  Then  turn  the  foot  up  and  pour  in,  filling 
the  cracks  around  the  heel  and  frog  with  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion ;  if 
you  can  wet  a  sponge  or  some  oakum  and  hold  in  place  by  springing  a 
piece  of  heavy  tin  under  the  shoe,  it  will  help  the  work  of  healing.  In  any 
event,  dress  it  often  enough  to  keep  it  clean;  it  is  well  to  give  one  of  my 
Physic  Balls;  feed  a  Renovator  Powder  morning  and  night;  give  bran 
mashes,  roots  and  soft,  foods.     CLEANLINESS' — don't  forget  it. 

Canker. — Results  of  neglected  treatment  of  Thrush,  Quittor,  Puncture, 
Greased  Heel,  etc.  Instead  of  healthy  horn  and  frog,  fungous  excrescences 
are  thrown  out  with  acrid  discharges.  This  if  neglected  has  a  tendency  to 
spread  over  the  entire  sole  and  it  is  very  difficult  to  get  the  horn  to  grow 
again ;    much  patience  is  required,  and  many  times  it  is  considered  incurable. 

Treatment. — All  loose  and  detached  horn  and  growth  must  be  removed; 
even  the  fungous  growth  which  can  be  removed  without  too  much  bleeding 
should  be  taken  away  with  knife  or  hot  iron.  Now  soak  the  foot  in  a  solu- 
tion of  Carbo-Negus  (two  spoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  hot  water)  ;  soak  for  from 
half  to  three  quarters  of  an  hour;  this  will  remove  the  inflammation  and 
destroy  all  germ  life.  Then  turning  the  foot  up  saturate  it  freely  with  my 
Wonder  Worker  Liniment;  saturating  a  sponge  or  piece  of  oakum,  bind 
upon  the  bottom  of  the  foot  with  firm  pressure  by  means  of  hoop  iron  slid 
under  the  shoe.  Once  a  day  dust  on  a  little  of  Daniels'  Canker  Remedy, 
following  with  a  dressing  of  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion ;  do  not  let 
the  foot  get  wet  after  the  first  cleansing.  Give  a  Physic  Ball ;  keep  in  a 
laxative  condition  by  giving  bran  mashes  and  proper  food ;  give  one  of  my 
RENOVATOR  POWDERS  twice  daily  in  the  food  for  two  weeks  in  each 
month  and  you  will  be  fully  repaid  for  your  efforts  in  this  treatment. 

Bleeding. — If  the  wound  is  a  simple  one,  not  on  the  inside  of  the  leg 
(where  the  large  blood  vessels  are  situated),  bathe  ard  bandage  with  Dan- 
iels' Wonder  Worker  Lotion.  If  the  wound  is  on  the  inside  of  the  leg, 
the  blood  a  scarlet  color,  place  pads  over,  and  bandage  tightly.  Get  a  good 
surgeon  at  once. 

Speedy  Cut.— Apply  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  freely  to  heal.  Hot  fermen- 
tations with  my  Liniment  Powder  to  reduce  inflammation,  if  any  exists. 
Open  if  abscess  forms,  and  cleanse  with  Carbo-Negus ;  protect  with  boot. 
Raise  condition  by  feed  and  my  Renovator  Powders.  Wonder  Worker,  if 
applied  at  once,  obviates  all  further  treatment. 

Brushing  or  Interfering. — A  three-quarter  shoe,  or  thin  shoe  on  inside 
web,  and  apply  freely  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  to  the  abrasion.  Put 
on  a  boot  to  protect.  When  inflamed  or  badly  swollen,  soak  the  joint  in  a  solu- 
tion of  hot  Liniment  Powder  (two  teaspoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  water).  Feed 
my  Renovator  Powders  for  a  tonic  and  to  put  into  condition.  Frequently 
weakness  and  debility  are  the  cause  of  interfering.  Build  up  the  consti- 
tution.

FOR   FAMILY   USE 

Heals  all  Flesh  Wounds  and  Sores,  Scalds,  Burns,  Bruises,  Strains  and 
Cuts;  greatest  cure  for  Piles  on  earth;  Ingrowing  Nails,  Hangnails,  Neu- 
ralgia, Rheumatism,  etc. ;    destroys   Proud  Flesh. 

Directions. — Cuts:  Applied  at  once,  the  Wonder  Worker  will  stop  bleed- 
ing and  close  the  wound,  and  prevent  all  soreness  and  inflammation.  Keeps 
out  germs  and  poison. 

Sores. — Wash  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  to  kill  germs ;  then  apply 
Wonder  Worker  Liniment  freely  and  often. 

Bruises  and  Sprains. —  Rub  on   freely   and  often  Wonder   Worker   Lotion. 

Hangnails. — Pull  out  the  hard  tissue,  then  apply  Wonder  Worker.  In 
the  morning  it  will  be  well. 

Ingrowing  Nails. — Soak  in  warm  water  (my  Liniment  Powder  if  con- 
venient). Apply  the  Wonder  Worker  with  soft  sponge  or  cloth;  bind  it  on 
over  night. 

Rheumatism. — In  many  cases  of  this  painful  disease  nothing  has  ever 
been  discovered  for  an  outward  application  to  compare  with  the  Wonder 
Worker.  Rub  it  in  gently  with  the  hand,  and  then  by  any  convenient  means 
heat  the  afflicted  part.  This  should  be  repeated  every  hour  or  two  until 
relieved. 

Neuralgia. — This  very  "king  of  pain"  yields  to  a  thorough  treatment  with 
the  Wonder  Worker,  as  directed  for  rheumatism.  It  has  afforded  relief  for 
the  tortured  nerves  in  a  few  hours,  and  sometimes  minutes,  in  cases  that 
had  baffled  the  ablest  physicians  and  defied  all  treatment  for  weeks,  months, 
and  sometimes  years.  Do  not  delay  its  use  for  a  moment.  On  first  symp- 
toms of  it,  .begin  at  once,  and  save  yourself  from  the  clutches  of  this  inde- 
scribable devil  of  torture.     Treat  as  for  Rheumatism. 

Burns  and  Scalds. — Undoubtedly  many  thousands  of  human  lives  might 
have  been  saved  by  a  timely  use  of  this  wonderful  healer,  as,  if  applied  at 
once,  its  action  is  marvelous.  It  will  instantly  form  a  coating  over  the 
flesh,  keeping  out  the  air,  relieving  all  pain  at  once,  and  beginning  to  heal 
from  the  moment  of  its  application.  Ladies  and  children  who  are  around 
the  cook  stove  very  often  get  a  small  burn  which  will  cause  great  pain.  A 
few  drops  of  this  Liniment  will  save  hours  of  pain  and  torture. 

Piles. — Many  thousands  of  bottles  of  Wonder  Worker  have  been  used 
for  this  disgusting  and  distressing  trouble,  and  I  have  never  yet  heard  of  a 
single  instance  where  it  did  not  afford  immediate  relief,  and  in  a  great 
majority  of  cases  an  ultimate  cure.  It  has  entirely  and  permanently  cured 
many  cases  that  were  of  many  years'  standing,  on  which,  in  some  instances, 
hundreds  of  dollars  had  been  thrown  away  in  vainly  searching  for  relief 
even.  To  any  troubled  to  a  greater  or  less  degree  with  this  annoying  com- 
plaint, I  say  that  one  bottle  of  the  Wonder  Worker  will  relieve  and  prob- 
ably permanently  cure  you.  Try  it,  and  tell  your  suffering  friends  the  re- 
sult. Obtain  a  small,  soft  sponge,  fill  it  with  the  Liniment,  and  carefully 
touch  the  parts,  say,  two  or  three  times  a  day.  If  all  parts  cannot  be 
reached  in  this  way,  use  a  small  syringe  to  inject  a  small  quantity,  or  small 
brush. 

This    Liniment   will   stain    clothing,    but   will     always    heal    and    relieve.

Vertigo,   Meningitis,  Mad    Staggers,   Etc. 

Vertigo. —  Caused  mainly  from  unsanitary  stables,  fatigue,  injuries  and 
indigestion.  Some  highly  irritable  and  sensitive  horses  are  predisposed 
to  it.     Usually  occurs  in  hot  weather  or  early  in  the  summer. 

Symptoms.—  After  having  been  lively  and  active,  becomes  at  once  heavy 
and  indolent,  seeks  seclusion,  if  in  the  stable,  and  is  dejected.  Eyes  fixed 
and  stupid,  half  closed,  forgets  himself  and  all  else,  head  down.  If  moving, 
gait  heavy,  dragging  and  unsteady,  lifts  feet  absurdly  high,  walking  like 
a  machine,  grows  worse  along  these  lines,  leans  to  one  side  in  walking, 
fore  legs  beneath  the  belly.  Eats  only  a  little  of  what  he  takes  up,  drinks 
plunging  head  deep  into  the  water.  Seems  to  be  lifeless,  oblivious  to  every- 
thing. No  fever  and  pulse  low.  breaths  slowly,  we  may  say  extreme  dizzi- 
ness  or   giddiness,   to   distinguish   from  other  brain  trouble. 

Treatment  on  the  Road. —  Stop  at  once,  loosen  the  check-rein  and  throat 
latch,  allow  the  animal  to  stand  quietly.  If  you  have  a  box  of  my  Colic 
Cure  under  the  wagon  seat,  give  him  3  or  4  30-drop  doses  of  No.  1,  at  in- 
tervals of  ten  minutes. 

If  not  soon  recovering,  lead  to  a  stable.  As  soon  as  quieted,  get  him 
home  into  a  roomy  stall.  Give  a  few  more  doses  of  Colic  Cure,  No. 
1.  If  cold,  cover  with  warm  blankets.  When  feeding,  give  warm  bran 
mash,  adding  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders.  If  constipated,  a  dose  of 
linseed  oil  and  bran  mashes,  good  clean  oats  and  hay,  adding  my  Renova- 
tor Powders  twice  a  day  for  a  week,  lump  of  salt,  plenty  of  pure,  cold 
water. 

Brain  Troubles,  Encephalitis. — Inflammation  of  the  brain,  Acute,  begins 
by  nervous  excitability,  sensitiveness  to  noises,  muscular  twitching,  spasmodic 
movements,  short  sight,  convulsions,  and  deliriums,  or  stupor  may  prevail, 
and  conditions  grow  worse  for  12  hours,  when  death  ends  the  suffering.  Per- 
sistent constipation,  and  retention  of  urine,  are  marked  symptoms  of  brain 
troubles,  also  high  fever.  In  the  chronic  form,  the  disease  comes  along 
slowly,  no  excitement,  but  stupidity.  Throws  up  and  shakes  his  head,  slow  in 
all  his  movements,  perhaps  paralysis  of  limb,  face  or  neck,  continues  for  sev- 
eral  days  thus,  until  it  assumes  the  acute  stage  and  terminates   fatally. 

Meningitis,  Mad  Staggers. — Acute  form  appears  suddenly,  with  vio- 
lent symptoms,  the  flying  back  and  plunging  ahead  regardless  of  surround- 
ings, quivering  all  over,  followed  by  rigid  muscles,  along  the  neck  and  back, 
head  held  up,  eyes  back  in  their  sockets,  convulsions,  delirium,  coma  and 
death,  urine  discharged  in  spurts,  fever  high.  You  may  distinguish  Menin- 
gitis from  Encephalitis  and  Cerebritis,  because  there  is  no  local  paralysis 
or  coma  until  near  death.  All  the  brain  troubles  are  similar  in  symptoms, 
all  are  ,  extremely  difficult  in  treatment,  nearly  all  terminate  fatally  in  a 
little  time,  hence  avoid  those  things  liable  to  affect  the  brain.

WORM  KILLER.. 


Packed  in  the  Yellow  Carton 
with  the  White  Edge 


FOR  HORSES 


I  am  of  the  opinion  that  every  horse  has 
at  all  times  more  or  less  worms,  but  not 
in  such  an  abundance  as  to  cause  annoy- 
ance. They  are  mostly  found  in  the  stom- 
ach and  bowels,  but  are  met  with  in  almost 
very  part  of  the  body.  Investigation  shows 
there  are  over  thirty  kinds  of  worms  that 
infest  the  horse.  There  are  but  three  or 
four  kinds  that  are  common.  Understand 
me  to  say  that  when  the  condition  of  the 
horse  is  weakened  or  low,  either  from  over-work,  neglect,  irregular  and 
poor  feeding,  there  the  conditions  are  favorable  for  the  worms  to  increase 
and  multiply,  and  not  only  irritate  the  horse  to  an  alarming  extent,  but 
eat  up  and  destroy  or  rob  him  of  health  and  strength. 
The  Round  Worm,  resem- 
bling the  common  earth  worm 
in  size  and  shape,  sometimes 
reaching  a  foot  or  more  in 
length,  inhabits  the  small  in- 
testine and  the  stomach.  Prob- 
ably a  few  do  little,  if  any,  injury, 
but  a  large  number  impair  di- 
gestion, the   stomach  gets  out 

of  order,  and  the  horse  is  soon  out  of  condition,  and  runs 
down  with  no  visiblccause.  I  consider  this  worm  the  cause 
of  many  horses  having  fits  and  staggers,  and  consequently 
very  dangerous. 

Symptoms. — Rough  and  staring  coat;  spirits  depart;  ap- 
petite poor;  food  passes  half  digested;  often  scours;  some- 
times eats  ravenously;  hide  bound;  skin  often  covered  with 
blotches;  looks  back  at  his  sides  with  an  uneasy  nervous 
appearance;  gnaws  and  bites  at  the  manger,  crib,  ox  any- 
thing he  comes  in  contact  with;  rubs  his  tail  against  the 
stall  or  anything  convenient ;  will  not  take  on  flesh. 

Whenever  your  horse  seems  in  a  run-down  condition  from 

no   visible   cause,   shows    any   of  these   symptoms,    save   time 

and  money  by  treating  at  once  for  worms. 

Oftentimes  and  with  some  horses  it  is  very  difficult  to  get  rid  of  the  Worms, 

but  with  my  treatment  and   WORM  KILLER,  you  are  sure  of  success  if 

you  patiently  follow  my  instructions.

A  Symptom  of  Worms 


Common  Round 
Worm 


i^Di 


b  A*  ODajmiels'  Medicines 


NES^ 


Treatment. — Always  cut  down  the  feed.  In  ordinary  cases  feed  one  day, 
morning  and  noon,  with  nothing  but  Bran  Mashes,  adding  one  of  my 
RENOVATOR  POWDERS  each  time ;  after  which,  small  warm  Bran  Mash, 
with  one  dose  of  my  WORM  KILLER  (use  two  doses  for  horse  of  1,200  or 
more)  ;  repeat  in  six  hours;  then  give  one  of  my  PHYSIC  BALLS,  or  dose 
of  linseed  oil,  after  which  you  will  be  pretty  sure  to  find  satisfactory  results. 
In  very  obstinate  cases  and  where  this  treatment  has  failed  to  give  results, 
repeat  the  treatment  in  about  three  days  or  a  week.  I  have  NEVER  known 
a  case  where  this  treatment  failed. 

After  getting  rid  of  the  worms,  your  horse  will  need  a  good  tonic  and 
strength-giving  food;  give  good  oats,  into  which  twice  a  day  put  one  of 
my  RENOVATOR  POWDERS;  good  food  and  allow  plenty  of  fresh 
air.  Under  no  circumstance  feed  grain  or  hay  while  you  are  treating  for 
worms ;  plenty  of  fresh  water.  Let  your  horse  rest  a  day  -or  two  while 
treating  for  worms. 

The  Needle,  or  Pin  Worm. — A  small  white 
worm,  from  one  to  two 
inches    long;     breeds    in  ~dXXXX}3J30D0DB3>- 

the    colon    and    rectum, 

often   appearing   in    tens    Whhe  or  Needle  Worm 
of  thousands.    They  are 

very  irritating  to  the  horse  when  in  the  rec- 
tum, causing  great  uneasiness  and  rubbing 
of  the  tail.  It  is  hard  to  reach  this  fellow  by 
way  of  the  stomach,  as  all  medicines  have  to 
pass  through  the  glands  and  organs  of  di- 
gestion and  assimilation,  and  nearly  all  its 
properties  are  supposed  to  be  taken  into  the  system  before  the  rectum  or 
large  bowel  is  reached.  It  is  so  much  more  convenient  to  give  the  Worm 
Killer  in  the  feed,  than  by  an  injection,  that  in  general  people  prefer  to  try 
this  method  first,  and  usually  with  first-class  results;  but  in  many  cases  it 
is  necessary  to  give  the  Wown  Killer  in  form  of  an  injection.  In  this  case 
it  is  best  to  proceed  just  after  the  horse  has  evacuated  his  rectum.  Dis- 
solve two  doses  of  the  Killer  in  two  quarts  of  boiling  water;  after  ten  min- 
utes add  cold  water  enough  to  bring  it  to  blood  heat,  and  inject  it  into  his 
rectum,  keeping  it  there  a  few  moments.  Repeat  this  treatment  in  eight  or 
ten  days  to  kill  the  brood  that  will  hatch  out  in  the  meantime,  Colts  should 
have  one-half  a  dose,  more  or  less,  according  to  size  and  age.  The  Worm 
Killer  can  be  fed  to  brood  mares  with  perfect  safety.  Thousands,  yes,  mil- 
lions, of  horses  that  have  no  visible  signs  of  worms  are  literally  alive  with 
them,  and  if  these  powders  are  fed  according  to  directions  these  worms  will 
be  thrown  off,  and  the  horse  will  improve  at  once.  On  the  other  hand,  be- 
cause you  notice  that  your  horse  passes  a  worm  occasionally,  it  is  not  a 
certain  indication  that  he  is  "wormy"  in  the  ordinary  sense  of  the  word;  but 
it  is  always  good  judgment  to  treat  for  worms  at  least  indications.  The 
action  of  this  medicine  is  most  scientific,  for  while  dispelling  the  worms,  it 
tones  up  the  stomach  and  alimentary  canal,  and  improves  the  general  condi- 
tion of  the  horse.  Hence,  give  one,  powder  daily  in  the  feed  for  a  week  or 
so  after  worms  are  destroyed.

Bots  are  said  to  be  the  larvae  of  the  gadfly.    They  are  a  subject  of  much  dis- 
cussion.   Whatever  their  nature  or  origin  may  be,  certainly 
to  the  horse  attacked  with  them,  they  are  a  pest,  causing 
inflammation  of  the  lungs,  colic  or  mad  staggers.     Symp- 
toms similar  to  COlic.  Easily  avoided  with

keeping  the  .horse  without  food  for  twelve  hours  previous;  Daniels'  Worm  Killer 
in  ten  minutes  give  six  ounces  of  salt  in  a  quart  of  warm 
water.  Mix  liberal  quantities  of  salt  with  food  during  treatment,  which  may 
take  four  to  six  weeks;  if  in  pain  give  Daniels'  Colic  Cure.  In  all  cases 
feed  the  Killer  as  previously  indicated.  Always  feed  Daniels'  Renovator  to 
invigorate  and  strengthen  the  blood  and  build  up  his  condition.  This  treat- 
ment followed  will  shortly  put  your  horse  in  fine  condition,  and  you  will 
enjoy  him  in  stable,  field  or  harness,  while  he  will  enjoy  life.  Keep  the 
horse  in  good  condition  with  clean  food,  good  water  and  air  and  frequent 
doses  of  Renovator  Powders,  or  he  will  again  have  worms,  no  matter  if  you 
drive  them  all  out  by  treatment. 

Skin  Diseases  of  the  Horse 

Are  many,  and  are  caused  in  general  by  neglect,  poor  feeding,  poor  surround- 
ings, etc.,  which  tends  to  a  run-down  condition,  bad  blood  with  its  attend- 
ant diseases. 

Treatment  in  all  skin  diseases  must  be  for  better  blood,  clean  and  whole- 
some surroundings,  fresh  air,  water  and  diet  is  important,  as  indicated  below. 

Skin  diseases  are  termed  according  to  appearance,  as  follows1. 

Erythema. — Simple    redness,    with    heat    and    dryness;     no    eruptions. 

Treatment. — Nourishing  diet ;  give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball ;  bran  mashes 
with  a  Renovator  Powder  often,  once  a  day  at  least,  for  the  blood ;  put 
a  Renovator  Powder  in  feed  twice  daily;  it  is  better  to  wash  the  skin  with 
a  solution  of  Daniels'  Veterinary  Carbo-Negus,  two  spoonfuls  to  a  quart 
of  warm  water. 

Papules. — Congestion  with  small  pimples.    Treat  same  as  for  Erythema. 

Eczema. — Eruptions  with  blister,  straw-colored  fiuid^  forming  a  yellowish 
scab  around  the  roots  of  the  hair. 

Treatment. — Most  usual  on  limbs  and  heels.  Give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball;, 
feed  bran  mashes  twice  daily,  adding  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders 
for  a  week;  good  clean  oats;  clean  hay,  with  roots;  if  debilitated,  give 
few  doses  of  No.  i  Colic  Cure  first  day,  at  intervals  of  half  hour,  repeating 
two  or  three  days ;  wash  sores  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus ;  wipe  dry, 
and  keep  wet  with  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  Lotion ;  give  particular  attention 
to  feed  and  cleanliness.     In  some  cases  my  Mange  Specific  gives  best  results. 

Pustules.— Eruptions  with  small  sack  of  creamy  white  pus  at  the  point  of 
eruption. 

Treatment. — Give  Daniels'  Physic  Ball;  care  as  to  feed;  bran  mashes 
with  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  first  week  and  often  afterwards ;  good 
oats;    clean  hay,  and  keep  up  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day,  for  two  or

three  weeks;    give  roots  and  soft  foods;    bathe  the  swellings  with  Wonder 
Worker  Lotion. 

Nettie-Rash,  Surfeit  Buds. — Cutaneous  nodules,  in  size  from  a  hazel  to 
a  hickory  nut;  seldom  form  blister  or  pustule. 

Treatment. — Clear  the  bowels  with  one  of  Daniels'  Physic  Balls ;  look  to 
feed,,  soft  foods,  bran  mashes  with  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day;  use

Daniels'  Mange  Specific  for  salve. 

Nervous  Irritation  of  the  Skin. — Common  in  summer,  showing  pimples  at 
mane  and  tail. 

Treatment. — Give  Daniel^'  Physic  Ball;    bran  mashes  with  Daniels'  Reno 
vator   Powder  every  day  for  a  week  or  more ;    good  oats  and  hay ;    roots 
and  soft  food,  if  possible,  but  be  sure  to  give  a  Renovator  Powder  twice 
daily  in  the  feed ;    wash  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  to  allay  inflammation. 

Herpes. — Small  eruptions  in  clusters,  drying  up.  Give  Physic  Ball,  bran 
mashes  and  soft  foods  with  Renovator  Powders  often  for  two  or  three

and  heal. 

Ringworm. — Small  circular  patches,  run  together  at  times,  contagious 
Give  Physic  Ball.  Wash  with  strong  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  after  re- 
moving the  scab;  take  fifteen  grains  of  oxalic  acid  to  one  ounce  of  water, 
and  apply  frequently  to  the  sores;  keep  clean  with  these  two  washes;  feed 
and  care  required ;  bran  mashes  and  soft  food  are  requisite ;  give  Renovator 
Powders  twice  daily  in  the  food  for  a  few  days. 

Mange,  Itch,  Psora,  Scabbies. — Acari  breeding  and  burrowing  in  the  skin, 
of  which  there  are  several  kinds.  Wash  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus 
(three  spoonfuls  to  quart  of  warm  water),  using  a  stiff  brush.  Rub  well 
into  the  skin  Daniels'  Mange  Specific;  give  Physic  Ball,  and  tone  up  the 
blood  with  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  in  the  feed;  bran  mashes,  soft 
food,  good  oats  and  clean  hay  should  be  the  diet. 

Baldness. — Take  half  a  drachm  of  iodine,  eight  drachms  vaseline,  mix 
and  rub  every  two  or  three  days  well  into  the  skin.  In  many  instances  my 
Gall-Cura  will  grow  the  hair  where  nothing  else  will — just  rub  it  we'll  into 
the  skin. 

Sitfasts. — Hard  insensible  tumors,  sometimes  termed  marbles.  Rub  in  a 
lump,  or  a  bit  of  Daniels'  Absorbent  Blister,  or  dissect  out  and  dress  with 
Wonder  Worker  Lotion ;  feed  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day  in  good  food 
for  two  or  three  weeks.  Use  for  any  and  all  skin  ills  my  Carbo-Negus  for  ex- 
ternal and  my  Renovator  Powers  for  internal  treatment.

ABSORBENT  BLISTER 
and  BUNCH  REMOVER 


Is  not  a  caustic  and  will  not  disfigure,  and  can  be 
used  easily,  without  injury  or  blemish.  The  great 
number  of  horses  in  use  having  enlargements  upon 
the  legs,  etc.,  such  as  Spavins,  Curbs,  Splints,  Cal- 
louses and  Thickened  Ankles,  has  caused  an  endless 
demand  for  a  convenient  and  inexpensive  absorbent 
for  the  removal  of  these  injuries  and  blemishes,  un- 
til I  had  formulated  an  Absorbent  Blister,  which  I 
have  put  up  in  convenient  form  and  can  recommend  as 
superior  to  any  caustics,  mustards,  or  other  harsh  and  in- 
jurious articles  on  the  market  sold  with  much  advertising 
for  the  removal  of  those  defects,  which  they  seldom  accom- 
plish. The  object  desired  is  not  to  make  your  horse  suffer, 
but  to  remove  the  enlargement,  swelling  or  bunch,  and  not 
scar  or  disfigure  the  animal.  This  remedy  is  designed  to 
create,  first,  an  irritation,  and,  secondly,  to  absorb  the 
thickened  cartilage.  The  severity  of  the  blister  is  regulated 
by  the  quantity  applied  and  how  thoroughly  and  long  it  is 
rubbed  in.  It  is  better  in  the  beginning  to  go  carefully, 
and  at  first  apply  but  little  and  rub  it  in  well,  and  watch 
results,  as  the  treatment  can  be  repeated  any  number  of 
times  until  the  desired  result  is  obtained.  Only  one  leg 
or  spot  should  be  treated  at  a  time ;  and  the  hair  should 
always  be  closely  cut  or  shaved.  Never  blister  with  any- 
thing when  it  is  highly  inflamed  or  shows  signs  of 
erysipelas.  If  the  blister  should  cause  the  horse  too  much 
pain  or  irritability,  or  loss  of  appetite,  wash  the  blistered  part  with  warm  solu- 
tion of  Carbo-Negus  (teaspoonful  to  quart)  and  smear  the  sore  with  vaseline. 
Always  be  careful  to  tie  the  horse  in  such  a  way  that  he  cannot  bite  the  blis- 
tered place,  which  he  will  always  try  to  do,  and  will  get  himself  into  the  most 
curious  positions  in  order  to  do  so.  Many  fine  horses  have  disfigured  themselves 
for  life  by  biting  and  tearing  at  a  small  blister.  It  is  many  times  desirable 
to  hitch  their  tails  to  keep  them  from  tv/isting  around  their  hind  quarters. 
Let  the  part  get  well  and  the  scabs  fall  off  themselves  before  using  the  blis- 
ter the  second  time.  If  the  blistering  was  insufficient  andi  another  is  required, 
do  not  use  quite  so  much  or  rub  it  in  as  hard  in  using  it  the  second  time, 
as  the  skin  will  not  yet  be  as  tough  as  before.  Follow  directions  and  you  will 
be  pleased  with  the  results. 

Directions    for    Applying-  my    Absorbent    Blister    and    Bunch 

Remover. 

If  any  inflammation  exists,   remove  the   same  before  using   a  blister.     A 
solution   of  my  Liniment    Powder    (two   tablespoonfuls   to    a  quart   of   hot

water)  will  alway  reduce  the  inflammation  if  freely  applied,  or  a  solution  of 
my  Carbo-Negus  (spoonful  to  quart  of  hot  water)  disinfects  and  destroys 
germs  and  makes  a  splendid  wash. 

In  these  directions  I  strive  to  advise  the  best  to  ob- 
tain the  best .  results,  but  you  can  use  my  Absorbent 
without  any  of  the  above  suggestions  and  obtain  better 
results  than  from  the  use  of  any  caustic,  absorbent  or 
blister  on  earth  in  removing  Swellings,  Bunches,  En- 
largements, Curbs,  Splints,  Spavin,  Ringbone,  Thor- 
oughpin,  etc.,  or  in  treating  sand  and  quarter  cracks, 
split  hoof,  or  for  any  use  where  a  blister  is  of  service. 
Directions. — Cut  away  the  hair  and  wash  the  place  in- 
tended to  blister  clean.  With  the  fingers  rub  in  well  for 
fifteen  minutes  some  of  my  Blister,  wiping  off  with  cloth 
any  adhering  to  hair.  Apply  vaseline  around  and  below, 
to  prevent  unnecessary  irritation.  Let  alone  for  two  weeks,  unless  the  skin 
shows  extreme  tenderness  and  cracks,  in  which  case  apply  my  Wonder 
Worker  -Lotion,  or  a  little  of  my  Gall-Cura. 

P.  S.— If  you  feed  one  or  two  doses  daily  of  my  RENOVATOR  POW- 
DERS whenever  you  blister  or  fire,  you  will  be  more  than  satisfied  with 
the  results ;  it  is  a  tonic  to  the  system,  makes  good  blood,  and  acts  upon 
the  kidneys,  bladder  and  stomach,  keeping  the  horse  in  condition. 

For  Swellings.— Showing  hard,  tough  condition,  if  inflamed  remove  as 
directed  above,  then  apply  the  blister,  repeating  two  or  three  times  at  inter- 
vals of  twelve  days,  or  two  weeks  if  required. 

For  Soft  Bunches. — If  inflamed,  reduce  as  directed  above,  then  apply  the 
Blister  to  the  affected  part  freely  as  directed,  repeating  two  or  three  times 
(if  necessary),  at  intervals  of  two  weeks. 

For  Enlargement.— Reduce  the  inflammation,  then  apply  the  ABSORBENT 
repeating  at  intervals  of  two  weeks  until  reduced. 

Curb. — Is  a  hot,  hard  and  painful  swelling  at  the  back  of 
the  hind  leg,  three  to  four  inches  below  the  hock.  Re- 
sult of  sudden  strain  or  blow,  and  will  lead  to  lameness. 
Bathe  freely  with  hot  applications.  Bandage  and  keep 
constantly  hot  and  wet  until  the  inflammation  has  sub- 
sided, then  apply  the  Absorbent  Blister,  and  repeat  the 
blister  two  or  three  times  if  required.  High  heel  shoe,  no 
Cmb         '  toe-pins. 

Side-Bones  appear  on  either  side  the  foot,  at  the  coffin 
bone;  origin  similar  to  splints  or  ringbone.  If  neglected, 
become  incurable. 

Treatment. — Rest,  hot  baths,  or  soaking  in  my  Lini- 
ment Powder  or  even  hot  water,  two  or  three  days,  to  re- 
duce inflammation  and  soreness ;  then  apply  Absorbent  > 
Blister  to  coronet,  repeating  two  or  three  times  at  inter- 
vals of  ten  days  or  two  weeks.  There  is  no  cure  if  hones 
have  become  carious.

Side-bones

©  A-  ODajniees'  Medicines 


Splints. — Splints  are  found  usually  on  the  inside  of  the  fore 
leg,  from  the  knee  downward  to  about  the  third  principal  canon 
bone,  although  they  sometimes  appear  on  the  outside  of  the  leg, 
and  sometimes  on  the  hind  leg.  Sometimes  they  are  the  cause  of 
frequent  lameness,  though  not  in  every  instance.  But  it  is  a 
lameness  peculiar  to  itself.  Not  continuous.  Intermittent  in  char- 
acter. More  noticeable  when  the  animal  is  warm  than  when  he 
is  cool.  7/  near  the  knee  joint  it  will  become  aggravated  when 
the  animal  is  put  to  work.  Splints  are  the  result  of  blows, 
bruises  or  external  hurts,  and  from  overstraining  or  excess  *of 
labor  in  young  animals,  and  are  of  the  most  common  occurrence. 
It  is  rarely,  in  large  cities,  that  a  horse  cannot  exhibit  one  or  more 
specimens  of  some  form  of  splints. 

Treatment. — Where  lamenes_  and  inflammation  exist  it  is  best 
to  reduce  the  inflammation  (copious  applications  of  hot  Lini- 
ment Powder,  or  even  hot  water),  then  apply  the  Absorbent  to 
the  bunch  as  directed.  Repeat  in  two  weeks  if  necessary. 
Ring-bone  is  found  in  and  about  the  coronet,  and.  often  extends  quite 
around  in  a  ring.  The  result  of  severe  labor  in  early  life,  or  may  be  the 
cause  of  bruises,  blows,  strains  or  other  accidents.  It  may  originate  in 
heredity.  A  ring-bone  is  worse  than  a  splint,  and  more  difficult  to  treat. 
In  fact  many  of  them  are  incurable.  Some  are  found  as  a  bunch  quite  up 
to  the  fetlock  joint,  others  down  close  to  the  border  of  the  foot;  those  of 
the  first  named  appear  as  a  convex  swelling,  those  low  down,  sort  of  a  thick 
ring,  others  a  sharp  projecting  swelling  on  either  side  of  the  coronet. 

Treatment. — Allay  the  inflammation  and  tlhen  apply  my  Absorbent  Blister. 
Repeat  two  or  three  times  at  intervals  of  two  weeks.  If  neglected  they 
surely  become  incurable,  hence  prompt  action  at  first  sight. 

Spavin  is  an  exostosis  of  the  hock  joint.  Usually  occurring  on  the  anterior 
and  internal  part  of  the  joint,  but  may  appear  on  the  upper  part  of  the  hock, 
or  possibly  a  little  below  the  inner  side  of  the  lower  extremity  of  the  shank 
bone,  forming  what  is  known  as  a  high  spavin,  or  may  form  just  on  the 
outside  of  the  hock  and  become  an  outside  or  exter- 
nal spavin.  Or  the  under  surface  may  become  the 
seat  of  the  deposit,  involving  the  internal  face  of  the 
hock  or  the  hock  bones.  The  hock  may  be  spavined  and  still 
retain  its  perfect  form,  in  which  case  it  would  show 
no  perceptible  enlargement,  thus  forming  an  occult 
spavin.  I  consider  a  spavin  the  most  serious  of  all 
leg  troubles,  and  when  once  fixed  there  is  no  known 
remedy  for  their  removal.  Hence,  when  once  they  are 
discovered  treatment  should  be  vigorous,  effective,  and 
to  the  point.  Among  early  signs  may  be  noticed  a  peculiar  position  when  at 
rest,  soon  becoming  habitual,  suggesting  so>me  hidden  cause.  In  this  position 
the  lower  part  of  the  leg  is  carried  forward,  and  the  heel  of  the  'foot  rest- 
ing on  the  toe  of  the  opposite  foot.  An  unwillingness  in  the  animal  to  move 
from  one  side  of  the  stall  to  the  other.  When  driving  assumes  a  sidelong 
gait  between  the  shafts.  Acts  strangely  when  at  rest.  Often  in  the  stall  will 
pt>s'e  with  foe  pointing  forward,  heel  raised,  and  tot  flexed,     A  slight  lam'e-

Spavi

Bone  Spavin 


ness  when  backing  out  of  the  stall.  Lameness  not  noticeable  after  a  short 
distance  of  travel.  Considerable  inflammation  at  times.  Close  examination 
will  locate  an  enlargement  at  the  junction  of  the  hock  and  canon  bones  on 
the  inside  and  a  little  in  front.  When  your  horse  shows  a  peculiar  or  new 
position  while  standing,  makes  a  habit  of  it,  say  the  heel 
of  one  foot  resting  on  the  toe  of  the  other,  dislikes  to 
move  from  one  side  to  the  other  of  the  stall,  begin  to  look 
for  Spavin.  When  moving  does  he  do  so  with  a  sidelong 
gait?  When  he  stops  does  he  stand  with  toe  pointing  for- 
ward, heel  up,  fetlock  flexed?  Look  for  Spavin.  A  cure 
all  depends  upon  treating  before  the  Spavin  has  become 
"fixed,"  hence  it  is  safe  to  treat  all  suspected  cases  of 
Spavin  at  once ;  even  when  in  doubt  treat  for  the  Spavin, 
no  harm  can  come  from  timely  efforts,  and  you  will  be  on 
the  safe  side.  Remember  in  all  and  every  case  you  must 
give  complete  rest  or  the  treatment  will  not  avail.  A  Bone 
Spavin,  in   forming,  grows  rapidly  and  persistently. 

Treatment. — To  be  successful  requires  absolute  rest.  Probably  a  month 
or  longer.  Alternate  hot  and  cold  applications  of  Liniment  Powder  or  hot 
and  cold  water,  and  apply  my  Absorbent  Blister  thoroughly.  Repeat  two  or 
three  times  if  necessary.  Bear  in  mind  all  the  time  that  you  are  not  curing 
a  Spavin,  but  curing  a  lameness- 

For  Curb,  Thoroughpin,  Bunches  and  enlargements  of 
any  sort,  remove  the  inflammation  if  any  exists,  then  make 
two  or  three  applications  of  my  Absorbent  (as  directed 
above)  as  the  case  may  require.  You  will  perhaps  some- 
times fail  in  removing  some  of  these  troubles,  but  rest 
assured,  if  they  cannot  be  removed  with  my  Absorbent, 
nothing  known  to  the  profession  will  remove  them. 

Cartilages. — Thickening  of  the  lateral  cartilage.  Each 
side  of  the  foot  there  will  be  found  a  strong  cartilage;  press- 
ing the  edges  close  up  to  or  in  the  edge  of  the  hair  around 
the  hoof,  one  can  easily  feel  them.  By  contraction  or 
pressure  these  often  become  inflamed,  thicken  and!  ossify,  bringing  on  ten- 
derness and  lameness. 

Treatment. — Remove  the  inflammation  (by  soaking  in  hot  water  as  usually 
indicated  in  this  work)  and  apply  Daniels'  Absorbent  Blister.  It  may 
require  two  or  three  applications  in  some  cases. 

Cocked  Ankles,  Knuckling. — No  doubt  a  partial  dislocation  of  the  fetlock 
joint.  Colts  are  prone  to  this  trouble  and  horses  with  erect  pasterns  are 
likely  to  be  afflicted,  as  they  age.  Horses  with  faulty  conformation  of  foot, 
toe  short  and  heels  high,  diseased  tendons  and  suspensory  ligament  again 
account  for  it. 

Treatment. — In  young  colts  let  nature  do  the  work;  use  ordinary  care 
and  their  legs  will  straighten  in  a  short  time.  Shoeing  is  the  principal  thing, 
shorten  toe,  leave  the  heel  high,  shoe  thin  at  the  toe,  with  high  heels,  apply 
my  Absorbent  Blister,  from  one  to  three  times  at  intervals  of  two  weeks. 
Oftentimes  repeated  applications  of  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  will  produce 
satisfactory  results.

Is  a  Germicide,  a  Styptic,  a  Detergent,  a  Disinfectant, 

a  Purifier,  Deodorizer,,  an  Antiseptic 

and  Insecticide 


Disease  and  Death  is  hastened  by  the  presence  of 
decay  of  any  kind,  accumulations  of  filth  and  decay- 
ing matter,  and  all  substances  that  emit  stench  are  hot- 
beds of  disease.  The  germ  danger  is  so  widely  recog- 
nized by  authorities  in  the  present  age,  it  seems  hardly 
necessary  to  remind  the  reader  of  the  great  import- 
ance O'f  destroying  all  foul  matter  on  discovery,  the 
urgent  need  of  disinfecting  the  premises,  and  above  all, 
the  importance  of  cleansing  and  disinfecting  sores  and  wounds  of  any  kind, 
and  keeping  them  clean.  , 

My  Carbo-Negus  is  the  greatest  cleanser  for  sores,  etc.,  on  earth.  It 
should  be  used  always  for  cleansing  and  disinfecting  any  Abscess,  Sore, 
Harness  Gall,  Quittor,  Fistula,  or  wound  of  any  kind,  before  trying  to  heal 
or  cure  with  any  remedy  of  whatever  nature.  No  remedy,  however  good,  can 
do  its  work  while  such  sore  or  wound  is  poisoned  by  dirt,  grease,  proud  flesh, 
etc.  Remove  these  and  you  can  heal  almost  by  nature.  Nothing  ever  invented 
or  discovered  can  approach  my  Veterinary  Carbo-Negus  for  this  work.  It 
is  not  only  carbolic  acid,  but  a  combination  of  the  most  powerful  and  search- 
ing disinfectants  known  to  science,  and  no  stable  should  be  without  it.  It 
prevents  the  spread  of  Tuberculosis,  Pleuro-Pneumonia,  etc. ;  destroys 
Sheep  Ticks ;  excels  every  known  remedy  for  Mange.  Not  only  prevents, 
but  of  great  aid  jn  treatment  of  Hog  Cholera.  Foot  rot  in  cattle  or  sheep 
cannot  exist  in  its  presence.  Cholera,  Roup,  Gapes  in  poultry.  For  Lice,  * 
Itch,  Mange,  Abortion  in  cattle.  For  Fleas,  Lice,  Mange,  Canker  in  dogs. 
For  Scab,  Ticks,  Lice,  Maggots,  Foot-Rot,  Worms,  in  Sheep.  Maggots  or  * 
lice  are  destroyed  at  once.  Humor  and  Skin  Diseases  are  easily  overcome 
by  its  use.  Acari  or  germ  in  horses'  manes  and  tails  (causing  them  to  rub) 
are  destroyed  at  once.    Destroys  the  eggs   (larvae)  of  flies. 

Wash  your  horses  and  cattle  with  a  weak  solution  of  my  Carbo-Negus, 
and  they  will  not  take  the  larvae  into  the  system  and  have  bots.  The  horses 
and  cattle  washed  in  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  will  not  suffer  from  annoy- 
ance of  flies.  Before  milking  wash  your  cow  with  a  solution  of  Carbo- 
Negus  ;  flies  will  wait  until  after  milking.  Soap  and  soap  powders  as  a 
cleansing  wash  are  not  a  disinfectant  or  a  proud  flesh  and  germ  destroyer. 
Carbo-Negus  is  a  cleanser  and  purifier,  a  germ  and  proud  flesh  destroyer, 
and  a  healer.  Less  expensive,  safer  and  better  than  carbolic  acid,  iodoform, 
peroxide  of  hydrogen,  or  other  advertised  disinfectants.

Important  Directions  For  Veterinary  Use. 

To  Cleanse  and  Disinfect  Sores,  Ulcers,  Cuts,  Wounds,  Galls,  etc. — Wash 
and  syringe  all  sores  thoroughly  before  applying  any  remedy.  First  put 
into  condition  to  heal,  then  keep  clean  by  freely  washing  in  solution  of  one 
tablespoonful  of  Carbo-Negus  to  quart  of  water. 

Lice  or  Mange  on  Horses,  Cattle  or  Dogs. — Put  two  tablespoonfuls  into  a 
gallon  of  water.  Apply  thoroughly  with  a  stiff  brush.  Repeat  in  three  days. 
Tuberculosis,  Pleuro-Pneumonia. — To  prevent  the  spread  of  these  terrible 
diseases  wash  the  hide  thoroughly  twice  a  week,  or  oftener,  with  solution,  2 
tablespoons  to  quart  of  water;  sponge  out  nose  and  mouth.  Wash  all  tubs 
and  mangers  twice  a  week.  Sprinkle  freely  all  about  stables  two  tablespoon- 
fuls Carbo-Negus  in  a  pail  of  water. 

Leucorrhoea. — The  result  of  continued  sub-acute  inflammation  of  the 
mucous  membrane  of  the  womb.  The  discharge  contains  forms  of  bacteria 
or  germ  life,  which  must  be  destroyed  before  effecting  a  cure.  Treatment 
consists  in  the  use  of  tonics  for  the  system  and  blood.  I  recommend  my 
Renovator  Powders,  two  doses  daily  for  two  or  three  weeks.  Give  bran 
mashes  frequently.  Wash  out  the  womb,  using  a  quart  of  warm  water,  into 
which  put  1-2  ounce  of  permanganate  of  potash  or  one-fourth  teaspoonful 
of  Carbo-Negus,  repeating  twice  daily  for  as  long  as  the  discharge  is 
noticed. 

Stings  and  Bites  of  Insects,  Bees,  Wasps  and  Hornets. — Paint  the  part  af- 
fected with  Carbo-Negus  (full  strength)  every  hour  and  allow  to  dry,  until 
pain  ceases. 

Purifying  the  Stable. — Sprinkle  daily  with  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus  around  the  stable  and  floor;  keep  the 
stable  clean  and  sweet.  Two  spoonfuls  to  gallon  water. 
Maggots  in  Neglected  Wounds  or  Sores  and  in  Sheep. 
— Clean  out  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus.  One  table- 
spoonful  to  quart  of  water. 

For  Thrush  and  Foot-Rot.— A  gill  of  Carbo-Negus 
to  a  pint  of  water.  Bathe  thoroughly  night  and  morn- 
ing, or  oftener  if  possible. 
For  Scratches. — A  gill  of  Carbo-Negus  in  a  gallon  of 
water.  Wash  thoroughly  and  wipe  dry.  Be  sure  to  cover  the  raw  surfaces 
with  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  after  washing. 

For  Prick  or  Nail  in  the  Foot. — Soak  the  foot  in  solution  of  one  gill  of 
Carbo-Negus  to  two  gallons  of  water.  Pack  the  opening  with  oakum  or 
sponge  wet  wTith  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 

For  Tails  and  Manes. — Wash  thoroughly  with  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus, 
one  tablespoonful  to  a  quart  of  water,  two  or  three  times  daily. 

For  Leg  Wash  after  hard  driving. — Two  teaspoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  water. 
Thoroughly  wash,  and  rub.     Prevents  swelling  and  stimulates  circulation. 
For  Greased  Heel. — Treat  same  as  for  scratches. 

For  Collar  and  Saddle  Galls. — Wash  thoroughly  and  often.  Two  teaspoon- 
fuls to  a  quart  of  water,  after  which  apply  Wonder  Worker  Lotion.  Wash 
the  inside  of  the  collar  with  same  kind  of  solution  every  day.

For  Cuts,  Wounds  and  Sores.— Wash  with  a  solution  of  two  teaspoonfuls  of 
Carbo-Negus  to  a  quart  of  water  several  times  daily. 

For  Inflamed  or  Fevered  Surfaces. — Wash  with  a  solution  of  two  teaspoon- 
fuls to  a  quart  of  water  several  times  daily. 

As  a  Body  Wash. — Sponge  the  animal  with  solution  of  two  tablespoonfuh 
of  Carbo-Negus  to  half  pail  of  water.  It  leaves  the  skin  in  a  bright  con- 
dition. 

To  Keep  off  Flies. — Sponge  the  horse  all  over  with  solution  of  two  table- 
spoonfuls  to  a  gallon  of  water.  The  flies  will  not  trouble  until  the  strength 
is  evaporated. 

For  Washing  Carriages,  Harnesses,  and  all  Stable  Appliances.— Use  a  gill 
of  Carbo-Negus  to  a  gallon  of  water.     It  will  purify  and  preserve. 

For  Dog  Kennels. — Wash  walls  and  floor  with  a 
solution  of  two  tablespoonfuls  to  a  gallon  of  water. 
It  will  make  the  kennel  sweet  and  clean. 

For  Fleas,  on  Dog  or  Cat. — Wash  the  animal  with 
solution  of  two  tablespoonfuls  to  a  gallon  of  water. 
Wash  thoroughly  for  a  few  minutes,  then  rinse  with 
clean  water.  Repeat  in  a  week  or  ten  days.  Two 
or  three  treatments  will  always  rid  your  dog  or  cat 
of  fleas. 
For  Mange,  which  is  difficult  to  cope  with.  Wash  with  solution  of  one 
gill  of  Carbo-Negus  to  a  gallon  of  water.  Soak  and  rub  it  in  thoroughly 
and  well.  When  the  skin  is  diseased  only  in  spots  after  one  washing  all 
over,  use  a  sponge  and  wash  the  affected  parts  several  times  daily  and 
apply  my  Mange  Specific. 

For  Sores  and  Wounds     on  man   or  beast,   wash  three  or  four  times  daily 
with  solution  of  two  teaspoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  water. 
For  Hen  Houses  and  Hens, 
Lice. — Sprinkle,  with  solution  of  one  teaspoonful  to  a  quart  of  water,  the 
floors,   roosts  and  nests.     Sprinkle  the  birds  when  possible.     When  white- 
washing, put  a  teaspoonful  of  Carbo-Negus  to  a  gallon  of  whitewash. 

For  Cholera. — Isolate  the  birds.  In  drinking  "water  put  five  drops  of  _  Carbo- 
Negus  to  a  quart.  Sprinkle  the  coop  well,  and  have  the  air  heavily  impreg- 
nated with  Carbo-Negus.  Do  this  by  having  pans  filled  with  solution  on 
the  floors,  and  wet  blankets  or  cloths  with  the  same,  and  hang  them  about 
the  premises. 

For  Swine 
Hog  Cholera.— Sprinkle  several  times   daily  the  pens,  troughs,  _  etc.,  with 
solution  cf  Carbo-Negus,  say  a  gill  to  a  gallon  of  water.  This  will  prevent 
the  contagion  from   spreading. 

Itching  on  Swine.— Wash  thoroughly  with  solution,  tablespoonful  to  a 
quart  of  water,  two  or  three  times  a  day. 

~  Lice. — Wash    thoroughly   with    solution,   two   teaspoonfuls    to    a   quart   of 
water,  twice  daily.     Sprinkle  the  pens  often  with  the  same  solution. 

Mange  on  Swine. — Thoroughly  wash  the  hide  (use  a  stiff  brush)  with 
solution  one  gill  of  Carbo-Negus  to  gallon  of  water,  four  to  six  times  daily. 
Wash  all  pens  and  troughs  with  same  solution.  This  is  a  contagious  dis- 
ease.

nized by  all  authorities  as  of  the  utmost  importance  in  treating  all  forms  of 
disease,  in  all  surgical  operations,  in  healing  wounds  or  sores  on  mankind 
and  animal,  in  preventing  the  spread  of  all  forms  of  contagion,  in  purify- 
ing all  sorts  of  places,  things  and  substances.  In  fact,  properly  disinfected 
surroundings  insure  good  health,  strength  and  happiness.  Hence,  the  im- 
portance of  securing  the  best  form  of  disinfectant.  Dr.  Daniels'  Carbo- 
Negus  destroys  all  forms  of  germ  life  or  microbe  wherever  existing,  aris- 
ing from  cholera,  diphtheria,  typhoid,  scarlet  fever,  dysentery,  etc. 

Carbo-Negus  is  king  among  the  long  array  of  disinfectants,  many  of  which 
are  close  imitations  of  Carbo-Negus  in  color,  aroma,  and  general  appear- 
ance. Carbo-Negus,  however,  is  easily  proven  superior  to  any  similar  dis- 
infectant fluid.  Carbo-Negus  is  the  original  from  which  nearly  all  similar 
fluids  are  produced,  and  as  a  consequence  retains  more  of  its  original 
strength,  purity  and  medicinal  qualities  than  any  of  the  numerous  imita- 
tions so  freely  advertised.  Carbo-Negus  solution  is  non-poisonous,  leaves  no 
stain  or  blemish  on  the  finest  fabric,  can  be  safely  used  on  bedclothes,  furni- 
ture, carpets,  draperies,  etc.,  without  fear  of  damaging  them  in  any  manner. 
Carbo-Negus  is  the  most  powerful  disinfectant  known  to  science,  destroying 
all  disease  germs,  microbes  and  septic  poisons  in  its  path.  Chemists, 
medical  officers,  and  sanitary  authorities  all  over  the  world  recognize  Carbo- 
Negus  as  the  safest  and  most  reliable  disinfectant  known  to  science.  Carbo- 
Negus  will  keep  your  sewer  sweet  and  clean,  the  air  of  bedrooms,  school- 
rooms, dwelling-rooms,  kitchens,  workshops,  barracks,  railway  cars,  steam- 
boats, hotels  and  public  buildings  free  from  odor  and  contagion.  Carbo- 
Negus  is  of  the  greatest  value  in  disinfecting  cellars,  dog  kennels,  cattle- 
sheds,  barns,  stables  and  henneries,  markets,  stores,  etc.  Managers  of  public  - 
buildings,  hospitals,  etc..  find  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus  the  most  satisfactory 
disinfectant,  cleanser  and  purifier  in  the  world. 

Carbo-Negus  is  strictly  a  medical  disinfeccant  and  users  of  Carbo-Negus 
find  its  use  multiplying  so  rapidly  it  becomes  an  actual  necessity  to  the 
comfort  of  the  household.  "Good  for  a  thousand  uses"  is  the  common  way 
of  speaking  of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus. 

DIRECTIONS  FOR  MEDICAL  USE 

Catarrh. — Draw  gently  up  into  the  nostrils,  three  times  a  day.  a  few  drops 
of  a  solution  composed  of  three  to  five  drops  of  Carbo-Negus  in  a  half  pint 
of  warm  water,  and  gargle  the  throat  with  same  sort  of  solution.

Whooping  Cough. —  Keep  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  about  the  room  in  open 
vessels,  renewing  daily.  Internally:  Two  drops  of  Carbo-Negus  in  a  glass 
of  water.  Dose  one  teaspoonful  every  hour.  No  better  remedy  for  whoop- 
ing cough. 

Ringworm. — The  Ringworm  is  a  vegetable  parasite,  which  may  quickly 
be  destroyed  by  a  few  applications  of  Carbo-Negus.  Paint  the  worm 
with  Carbo-Negus  night  and  morning  by  means  of  the  finger  tips  dipped 
into  the  fluid,  full  strength.  In  a  few  days  the  spot  will  become  sore,  con- 
sequently use  less  of  the  Carbo-Negus,  and  it  will  soon  heal  and  the  ring- 
worm   disappear. 

Pimples  and  Face  Eruptions. — Bathe  the  face  freely  three  times  a  day  in  a 
mixture  composed  of  a  teaspoonful  of  Carbo-Negus  to  each  quart  of  water 
used. 

Warts  and  Corns. — Can  be  quickly  softened  and  will  disappear  entirely 
after  a  few  applications  of  Carbo-Negus,  applying  the  strong  fluid  to  the  corn 
or  wart  by  means  of  a  splint  of  wood  or  brush  as  often  as  convenient,  but 
not  less  than  twice  daijy,  touching  just  the  corn,  itself. 

Chilblains. — If  the  skin  is  not  broken  anoint  the  feet  or  hands  with 
Carbo-Negus  night  and  morning,  allowing  it  to  remain  on  ten  minutes, 
then  wash  off  with  clean,  warm  water. 

Chapped  Hands. — Wash  in  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (one  teaspoonful 
to  each  quart  of  water).     Nothing  heals  and  softens  the  hands  more  quickly. 

Burns  and  Scalds. — Foment  with  a  mixture  of  ten  drops  of  Carbo-Negus 
to  each  pint  of  water  used. 

Sore  Throat  and  Bronchitis. — A  teaspoonful  of  Carbo-Negus  to  a  quart 
of  water  and  gargle  the  throat  two  or  three  times  a  day. 

Wounds  and  Sores. — Wash  with  solution  of  one  teaspoonful  of  Carbo- 
Negus  to  a  half  pint  of  water  several  times  daily. 

In  Treating  Skin  Diseases,  pimples,  face  eruptions,  scrofula,  sores, 
chapped  hands,  burns  or  scalds,  ivy  poison,  chilblains,  frost-bites,  nettle- 
rash,  or  any  disease  on  the  surface  of  the  body,  you  will  obtain  instant 
relief  and  effect  a  speedy  cure  by  its  use.  Use  a  teaspoonful  of  the  remedy 
to  a  quart  or  more  of  water,  and  bathe  the  parts  affected  three  times  a  day. 
Wash  in  clear  water  one  hour  after  using. 

For  Diseases  of  the  Mucous  Membrane,  like  catarrh  and  sore  throat,  use 
a  solution  of  ten  drops  of  Carbo-Negus  to  a  pint  of  water  three  times  a 
day.     It  will  do  wonders   for  you. 

Men. — Carbo-Negus  used  as  a  douche  or  injection,  in  a  solution  half  a  tea- 
spoonful (use  less  if  too  strong)  to  two  quarts  of  warm  water,  will  prevent 
and  cure  all  discharges,  inflammation   and  pain. 

Women.— For  women  Carbo-Negus  used  as  a  vaginal  douche  in  a  solu- 
tion half  a  teaspoonful  to  two  quarts  of  warm  water  will  positively  prevent 
and  cure  all  discharges,  inflammation  and  pain.     Unequaled  for  Leucorrhcea. 

Dandruff. — As  a  scalp  wash  nothing  equals  a  teaspoonful  of  Carbo-Negus 
mixed  with  a  quart  of  water;   cleans  the  scalp;  prevents  falling  hair. 

Insect  Bites  and  Mo'squitces. — Paint  the  parts  stung,  etc.,  with  Carbo- 
Negus  and  allow  to  dry  on  until  pain  ceases. 

Flies. — Every  family  is  afflicted;  more  or  less  by  flies,  moths',  bedbugs,  buf- 
falo bugs,  ants  and  other  insects.     To  destroy  these  pests,  use  one  gill  of 

55 


?^T)£aj?5ix£niels*  Medicines"^* 


Carbo-Negus  to  each  gallon  of  water,  and  wash  thoroughly  the  floors,  base- 
boards, bedsteads,  and  sprinkle  the  carpets,  clothes  and  furniture.  For 
flies,  sprinke  the  floors  of  the  kitchen,  wash-room,  or  other  places  infested 
by  them  with  a  solution,  and  they  will  disappear  as  if  by  magic. 

Lice. — Wash  with  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (one  gill  to  every  quart  of 
water). 

Ivy  Poisoning. — Apply  to  the  parts  affected  Carbo-Negus,  and  allow  to 
soak  ten  or  fifteen  minutes ;  wash  off  with  clear  water. 

Itching. — Use  as  a  wash  Carbo-Negus  (one  teaspoonful  to  each  pint  oi 
water). 

For  the  Bath  and  Washing  the  Hair. — Add  a  teaspoonful  to  each  gallon 
of  water.     Nothing  can  be  be.ter.     Kills  odors  and  cleans. 

Fetid  Feet. — Wash  and  soak  the  feet  in  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (one 
tablespoonful  to  each  quart  of  water).     Cures  blisters  and  sores. 

In  Typhoid  Fever,  Dysentery,  Yellow  Fever,  Cholera,  or  any  Contagious 
Disease. — The  evacuations  should  be  received  in  chamber,  or  pan  and  im- 
mediately covered  with  Carbo-Negus  solution  in  the  proportion  of  half  pint 
to  gallon  of  water. 

Floors  and  walls  are  easily  disinfected  by  putting  in  the  scrubbing  water 
a  little  Carbo-Negus,  about  half-cup  of  Carbo-Negus  to  gallon   of  water. 

For  the  Sick  Room. — To  prevent  the  spread  of 
infectious  diseases,  such  as  Cholera,  Scarlet  Fever, 
Measles,  Grippe,  Diphtheria,  Smallpox,  etc.,-  wash 
floors  and  walls  and  sprinkle  freely  everywhere. 
Hang  clothes  dipped  in  this  solution  about  the 
room.  Spittoons  and  chamber  vessels  should  always 
contain  this  mixture.  Wet  all  cloths  and  dishes 
with  solution  before  removing  from  the  room.  Put 
one  or  two  tablespoonfuls  into  a  pail  of  water. 
No  family  can  get  along  without  Carbo-Negus.  Once  in  the  house  you 
will  always  use  it. 

To  any  one  who  recognizes  the  importance  of  cleanliness,  or  has  ever 
used  Carbolic,  Lime,  Iodoform,  Peroxide  of  Hydrogen,  Sulpho-naphthol, 
Carbo-anything,  or  other  antiseptics,  I  say  try  Carbo-Negus  once;  it  will 
tell  its  own  story  of  vjalue. 

A  FEW  OTHER  USES  FOR  CARBO=NEGUS  IN   THE  HOUSE 

Ice  Boxes.— Wash  with  a  solution  of  two  tablespoonfuls  of  Carbo-Negus 
to  a  quart  of  water.     This  will  thoroughly  cleanse  the  ice  boxes,  destroying 
all  disagreeable  odors.     After  washing,  rinse  with  clean  water,  and  allow  to 
remain  open  for  a  few  moments,  and  the  ice  box  will  be  pure  and  sweet. 
Pure  Air  in  Basements    and  Cellars.  —  You   can   re- 
move   foul    odors     and    dangerous    gases     from    base- 
ments   or    cellars,    drive    away    the    flies    and    kill    all 
disease    germs,    by    using    a    few    spoonfuls    of    Carbo- 
Negus   to   a   pail   of   water,   and    sprinkling   the   floors, 
walls    and    recesses,   and   by   pouring  water   containing 
some    of    the    solution    in    the    urinals,    privy-vaults  and 
sink-drains.       For    this     purpose,     use    one    part    Carbo- 
Negus   to   seventy-five   of  water.

Kitchen  Odors. — Oftentimes  disagreeable  odors  arise  from  the  kitchen  or 
cook  room  where  food  is  being  prepared,  and!  permeate  the  whole  house, 
rendering  the  air  offensive  and  annoying  to  the  family.  These  can  be  pre- 
vented or  removed  by  Carbo-Negus,  and  I  would  especially  recommend  it 
in  all  cases  where  odors  are  prevalent,  as  it  acts  by  combining  with  the  causes 
of  the  smell,  rendering  it  inert,  and,  by  its  germicidal  action  in  destroying 
micro-organisms,  it  prevents  the  development  of  gases  that  give  rise  to  objec- 
tionable odors.  Use  one  part  of  Carbo-Negus  to  one  hundred  of  water  in 
washing  the  floors  and  all  cooking  utensils,  and  the  kitchen  will  smell  as 
sweet  as  the  drawing-room  or  parlor. 

For  Ash  Barrels,  Swill  Buckets,  etc. — These  should  be  kept  free  from 
germ  disease.  Sprinkle  them  with  solution  of  half  pint  of  Carbo-Negus  to 
a  gallon  of  water  frequently. 

During  the  Summer  Months  the  many  foul  odors  that  arise  about  the 
premises,  resulting  from  decaying  vegetation,  stagnant  water,  sour  swill- 
barrels,  filthy  pigsties,  neglected  stable  vaults  and  water-closets,  render 
the  constant  use  of  disinfectants  and  deodorizers  necessary  in  keeping  our 
homes  healthful  and  preventing  disease. 

Water-Closets. — To  each  gallon  of  water  add  one-quarter  of  a  gill  of 
Carbo-Negus,  and  thoroughly  flush  the  bowls  each  night  and  morning. 

Kitchen  Sinks  should  be  flushed  thoroughly  two 
or  three  times  a  day  after  use,  with  a  quart  or  so  of 
•a  solution  composed  of  a  teaspoonful  of  Carbo-Negus 
to  each  quart  of  water. 

Out-Door  Closets.  —  Mix  one  gill  of  Carbo-Negus 
into  a  pail  of  water  and  sprinkle  in  each  hole. 

Urinals. — Flush  the  bowls  out  night  and  morning 
with  Carbo-Negus  and  flush  with  clean  water. 

Drains. — Pour  a  tablespoonful  of  Carbo-Negus  into  the  drain  and  clean 
out.  Then  pour  a  few  drops  of  Carbo-Negus  into  the  drain  night  and 
morning. 

Floors. — To  each  pail  of  water  used  for  scrubbing  add  one  tablespoonful 
of  Carbo-Negus. 

Chamber  Utensils. — These  should  always  be  washed  out  with  a  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus    (a  tablespoonful  to  each  pail  of  water). 

Laundry. — To  each  gallon  of  washing  water  add  one-half  teaspoonful  of 
Carbo-Negus.     It  will  bleach  the  clothes.     Don't  use  it  in  the  rinsing  water. 

Stains. — Tan,  dye,  walnut,  hutternut,  paint,  ink  and  other  stains  may  be 
readily  removed  from  the  hands,  etc.,  by  first  washing  in  Carbo-Negus  and 
then  rinsing  in  water. 

For  Garden. — To  get  rid  of  green  flies,  rose  bugs,  spiders  and  ants,  use 
Carbo-Negus.  Spray  the  vines  or  use  watering  pot ;  solution  of  from  two 
to  three  hundred  parts  of  water  to  one  part  of  Carbo-Negus,  according  to 
the  strength  of  the  vines. 

It  commends  itself  to  the  family,  for  whether  used  in  removing  odors, 
preventing  or  treating  diseases,  healing  sores  and  wounds,  or  killing  flies 
and  insects,  it  strikes  at  the  cause  and  removes  it. 

When  once  you  have  used  Carbo-Negus,  it  will  need  no  further  recom- 
mendation.

SUNDRY   ILLS 

Abscess  (Common). — When  the  point  is  soft  and  evidently  contains  fluid 
or  pus,  open  at  lowest  dependent  point  and  wash  out  with  my  Veterinary 
Carbo-Negus  (spoonful  to  quart  of  water),  and  apply  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion  to  heal.  Poultice  when  necessary.  Renovator  Powders  in  the  feed 
for  the  blood;  give  bran  mashes  often. 

Burns  and  Scalds. — Apply  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  freely.  It  takes  out 
the  sting  and  heals   quickly. 

Warts  can  only  be  removed  by  excession,  torsion  or  legation,  and  apply 
Wonder  Worker  Lotion  to  heal;  feed  Renovator  Powders  for  blood  and 
condition.     There  is  no  medicine  to  remove  warts.     Cut  or  burn  them  off. 

Balking. —  In  a  young  horse  is  generally  caused  by  discouragement,  in 
being  overloaded  or  exhausted;  at  this  time  a  poor  driver  can  easily  make 
a  confirmed  balker  by  temper  and  the  use  of  the  whip.  When  your  horse 
balks,  keep  cool,  don't  get  excited,  don't  whip  or  club  or  twitch  him  about 
by  the  bit;  patience  and  tact  is  the  only  means  of  moving  him.  If  not  over- 
loaded take  a  piece  of  rope  four  or  more  feet  long.  Standing  in  front  of 
the  horse,  pass  the  rope  behind  the  fore  legs  just  at  tlie  knees;  gently  pull 
the  rope  forward  against  the  leg.  First  one  and  then  the  other;  he  will 
forget  his  trouble,  and  step  first  one  and  the  other  and  soon  be  going. 
Many  times  the  horse  finds  it  impossible  to  move  the  load,  and  knows  it 
better  than  his  brutal  drivers,  and  simply  won't  try.  Have  your  harness 
and  collar  fit,  not  too  large  or  too  small ;  many  horses  are  caused  to  balk 
from  poor  fitting  harness.  r 

Big  Head,  Enlarged  Jaw. — This  is  common  to  horses  in  the  Southwest 
and  other  sections  of  the  country.  It  is  really  incurable  in  itself  and  still 
if  taken  at  first  stages,  or  if  preventative  measures  are  used,  it  will  not 
occur  or  will  be  much  palliated. 

Big  Head  and  certain  forms  of  lameness  coexist.  Many  unexplained 
cases  of  lameness  will  be  found  connected  with  enlarged  jaw,  peculiar  and 
sudden  lameness  in  the  vertebral  region  and  thigh  bone,  breaking  down 
of  the  fetlock  from  no  known  or  visible  cause.  When  large  amounts  of 
corn  are  fed  it  seems  more  likely  to  exist.  Lack  of  phosphates  and  nitrogen 
with  excess  of  starchy  foods  seems  to  form  malnutrition,  producing  disease 
through  lack  of  proper  adjusting  of  feed. 

Firing,  although  by  some  people  considered  too  severe,  is  permissible  in 
certain  diseases.  It  must,  however,  be  used  with  judgment  and  discretion. 
It  will  be  found  very  useful  in  lameness  that  has  been  chronic,  and  bone 
diseases  where  liniments  and  blisters  have  failed.  The  iron  should  be  used 
at  full  red  or  white  heat;  touch  as  lightly  as  possible  to  make  a  distinct 
impression.  Never  fire  more  than  one  leg  or  one  spot  at  a  time.  Always 
clip  the  hair  closely  before  applying  the  iron  and  securely  fasten  the  animal. 
Beginning  on  the  day  after  firing  apply  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion.  Do 
not  put  the  animal  to  work  too  soon.     If  you  do,  the  trouble  will  return.

HOOF    BROWE-R. 
and  SOFTENER-. 


Warranted  to  Grow  an  Entire  New 
Hoof  in  Three  to  Four  Months. 

A  Wonder  in  the  Treatment  of  All 
Hoof  Ills,  and  Many  Foot  Diseases. 

For  Horns,  Sand  Cracks,  Quarter 
Cracks,  Seedytoe,  Contraction  in  All 
Its  forms,  Bruised  Sole,  Etc. 


No  part  of  the  horse  is  less  understood  or  more  neglected  than  the  foot. 
The  horse  was  created  to  run  wild, 
barefooted,  his  feet  constantly  moist. 
Man  has  changed  his  condition,  keep-* 
ing  his  feet  almost  constantly  dry,  which 
causes  at  least  one-half  of  all  lameness  of 
horses.  My  Hoof  Grower  is  a  positive 
cure  for  all  ailments  of  horses'  feet  caused 
by  hard  and  constant  driving  on  hard 
roads,  or  by  standing  in  the  stables. 

It  will  prevent  and  remove  all  brittle- 
ness,  cures  and  prevents  shelliness,  quar- 
ter crack,  corns,  bruised  sole,  tumor  of 
the  foot,  false  quarters,  contraction,  sand 
cracks,  seedytoe  and  all  hoof  troubles.  As 
in  all  these  troubles  a  new  hoof  must  be 
grown.  My  HOOF  GROWER  is  WAR- 
RANTED to  grow  an  entirely  new  hoof  in  from  three  to  four  months- 

It  is  especially  recommended  for  trotting,  driving,  carriage  or  work  horses, 
where  shoeing  is  needed  often,  as  it  grows  plenty  of  hoof  to  be  cut  away, 
toughens  the  whole  foot  so  that  the  nails  hold  good,  and  greatly 
lessens  the  liability  of  tearing  away  a  large  piece  of  the  hoof  when 
the  shoe  is  torn  off.  It  makes  soaking  and  packing  entirely  unneces- 
sary, saving  time  and  labor.  In  short,  it  makes  the  hoof  grow,  softens  and 
toughens  it,  and  draws  out  the  soreness  as  no  amount  of  soaking  can  pos- 
sibly do. 

To  one  unacquainted  with  the  wonderful  properties  of  this  remedy,  and 
who  has  noticed  the  slow  growth  of  a  hoof,  it  seems  unreasonable  to  claim 

59 


Hoof  ought  to  look  like  this,  and 
would  if  you  used  my  Hoof 
Grower  when  it  was  needed 


D^  A'ODajniels'  Medicines 


to  grow  an  entirely  new  hoof  in  so  short  a  time,  and  he  decides  that  it  can't 
be  done.  To  all  I  say  try  this  remedy  and  follow  the  directions  thoroughly, 
and  while  it  may  not  do  all  expected  of  it,  if  you  are  not  satisfied  with  the 
result  at  the  end  of  three  or  four  months,  and  do 
not  think  your  money  and  time  well  spent,  go  to  the 
place  you  bought  it  and  get  the  money. you  paid  for 
it.  Can  anything  be  fairer?  Of  the  twenty  millions 
of  horses  in  this  country,  certainly  half  of  them,  at 
some  time  or  other,  have  trouble  with  their  feet,  and 
a  large  proportion  of  them  become  dead  lame  and 
almost  useless.  Think  of  the  loss  to  the  owners, 
to  say  nothing  of  the  pain  and  misery  endured  by 
the.  tortured  animals.  I  do  not  claim  that  all  can 
be  cured,  but  all  can  be  helped  and  relieved,  at 
small  expense  in  time  and  money.  When  you 
notice  the  beast  flinching  on  the  hard  road  or  pave- 
Dry,  Shelly  and  Brittle  ment}  or  going  down  hill;  or  your  horse,  when 
standing  still,  rests  or  puts  out  his  forefoot,  do  not  delay,  but  use  this  Hoof 
Grower  at  once. 

Don't  let  your  animal  get  lame  before  you  attend  to  him;  prevention  is 
far  better  than  cure.  Any  of  the  above  signs  are  indications  that  his  frog 
is  hard  and  dry,  his  coronet  non-elastic,  or  the  foot  becoming  contracted. 
Examine  his  feet  and  clean  them,  especially  the  cracks  around  the  frog.  If 
they  smell  foul  he  has  the  Thrush,  in  which  case  use  the  Wonder  Worker 
as  directed.  Feel  around  the  top  of  the  hoof,  under  the  hair,  press  the  upper 
edge  with  your  nail.  If  found  hard  and  unyielding,  rub  on  the  Hoof  Grower, 
and  work  it  in  well.  Many  times  the  upper  edge  of  the  hoof,  which  should 
be  quite  soft,  will  grow  hard  and  curl  over  like  an  ingrowing  nail,  and 
cause  the  most  excruciating  pam.  The  frog  is  the  cushion  provided  by 
nature  to  prevent  the  effects  of  the  concussion  when  the  foot  strikes  hard 
substances.  When  the  frog  becomes  hard  and  bone-like  it  loses  all  its  elas- 
ticity, and  is  useless  for  the  purpose  for  which  it  was  intended,  and  inflam- 
mation quickly  results.  You  must  pay  close  attention  to  the  frog,  and  when 
found  growing  hard  apply  the  Hoof  Grower  around  it  and  the  coronet.  In 
order  to  have  it  reach  the  very  bottom  of  the  deep  cracks  around  the  frog, 
it  is  best  to  melt  the  ointment  when  putting  it  in.  Sometimes  it  may  be 
more  convenient  to  put  the  ointment  in  with  the  finger,  and  then  touch  it 
with  a  small  iron  rod  heated  a  little  by  a  lamp  or  stove.  It  is  no  use  to  use 
this  remedy  a  few  times  only,  in  relieving  sore  and  contracted  feet,  as  no 
permanent  good  will  come  of  it  unless  it  is  used  for  some  length  of  time. 
In  other  places  I  have  recommended  this  ointment  being  used  in  connection 
with  the  Wonder  Worker  for  healing  sore  teats,  scratches,  etc.  Try  it,  and 
if  you  do  not  find  it  so,  go  to  the  man  you  bought  it  of  and  get  your  money 
back. 

There  are  several  kinds  of  corns,  the  dry,  the  moist  and  the  suppurative; 
all  these  are  found  most1y  in  the  front  feet.  The  dry  corn  upon  paring 
away  the  heel,  the  sole  in  the  angle  is  discolored,  even  staining  the  laminae, 
and  wall;  if  the  whole  sole  is  discolored  and  the  horn  dry  and  shelly  it's 
likely  an  old  one.  The  moist  corn  leaves  no  stain,  or  very  little,  if  any,  but 
the  horn  is  soft,  quite  white  and  mealy,  or  spongy.     The  suppurative  corn,  as 

60 


i^^T)^  A'  ODAJSUEiLS  Medicines^^^ 


the  name  indicates,  is  one  in  which  the  inflammation  ends  in  suppuration,  the 
pus  collects  and  works  its  way  upward,  escaping  at  the  top  of  the  hoof. 
This  form  of  corn  is  serious  for  it  results  in  the  worst  form  of  quittor. 

Corns  are  commonly  caused  by  the  shoe 
pressing  upon  the  part;  when  the  wall 
breaks  down  or  is  cut  away  so  much  as 
to  let  the  shoe  rest  upon  the  sole  or  soft 
parts  ;  or  if  the  shoe  be  nailed  well  back 
on  the  outside  and  toe,  and  left  on  too 
long,  cause  corns ;  high  heels,  contracted 
heels,  long  feet,  weak  feet,  wide  feet  with 
Corns  flat  sole  are  prone  to  corns. 

Treatment,  Dry  Corn. — Cut  away  the  parts  so  that  the  shoe  will  not  rest 
upon  it;  touch  the  spot  or  corn  with  the  hot  iron;  then  pack  in  Daniels' 
Hoof  Grower  and  Softener,  cover  with  tow  or  oakum,  and  keep  it  in  place 
by  springing  under  the  shoe  a  strip  of  sheet  iron.  Open  out  the  quarters 
from  time  to  time  and  apply  the  Hoof  Grower  to  stimulate  the  growth  of 
the  horn.  Use  a  bar  shoe,  fitting  it  to  the  wall  carefully,  and  cutting  out 
so  as  to  avoid  any  pressure  to  the  tender  parts. 

Treatment,  Moist  Corn. — Soak  in  hot  Liniment  Powder,  poultice  for  a 
couple  of  days ;  when  inflammation  is  removed  pare  out  the  diseased  horn, 
cauterize  the  tissues,  then  poultice  for  a  day  or  two,  cleanse  and  dress  with 
Wonder  Worker  Lotion  applied  upon  absorbent  cotton  or  oakum,  kept  in 
place  with  bands,  or  as  indicated  before.  Keep  the  dressing  moist  with 
Wonder  Worker  Lotion.  Apply  Hoof  Grower  to  coronet  and  frogs  daily — 
bar  shoe  put  on  with  care  to  avoid  pressure  on  the  tender  spot. 

Treatment  for  Suppurative  Corns    must  be  as  laid  down  for  Quittor. 

Bruised  Sole. — Remove  the  inflammation  by  soaking  in  a  solution  of  hot 
Liniment  Powder  for  an  hour;  clean  thoroughly;  apply  freely  my  Hoof 
Grower  to  the  bottom  of  the  foot  and  cover  with  leather  and  shoe,  but  re- 
move all  pressure  of  the  shoe  from  the  bruise. 

Clicking  and  Over-Reaching  or  Interfering  is  due  to  weakness  or 
faulty  shoeing.  If  the  latter,  remove  the  cause;  if  weakness,  strengthen 
(if  in  a  colt)  by  proper  training  and  driving.  When  caused  from  acci- 
dent, grabb-'ng,  etc..  immediate  attention  is  required,  neglected,  it  ,  is 
liable  to  bring  on  Quittor.  and  cause  serious  damage.  Many  of  these  injuries 
can  be  lessened  or  prevented  by  proper  shoeing.  When  cuts  exist  Wonder 
Worker  freely  used  will  heal  quickly. 

Pumice  or  Weak  Foot. — Caused  from  inflammation,  from  laminitis,  drop- 
ping of  the  coffin  bone,  any  cause  producing  inflammation  of  the  foot.  It  is 
easily  determined  by  the  extreme  convexity  of  the  sole;  in  reality  it  cannot 
be  cured;  care  and  treatment  will,  however,  make  the  animal  useful.  _ Where 
irritation  exists,  allay  bv  the  usual  methods  applying  a  linseed  poultice ;  or 
soak  in  solution  of  hot  Liniment  Powder,  use  my  Absorbent  Blister  around 
the  coronet  to  stimulate  :  after  blistering,  aoply  twice  daily  my  Hoof  Grower 
to  the  coronet,  hoof  and  fro?;  it  is  also  very  beneficial  when  applied  to  the 
sole,  frog  and  heel,  for  keening  the  same  soft  and  assisting  in  the  growth  of 
the  new  tissue  and  honf.  Sunnly  and  protect  the  foot* all  you  can  with  a 
nicely  fitting  bar  or  concave  shoe.      As   is  usual   in  the  treatment   of  this 


61 


§>^~Db-  A*  QDantels'  MedicSnes^^ 


trouble,  I  recommend  good  food,  fresh  air  and  a  roomy  stall  with  clay  bot- 
tom. 

Quarter  Crack. — Caused  by  numerous  forms  of  ill  treatment;  raising  the 
frog  from  the  ground ;  cutting  away  the  frog  and  sole  of  the  foot  too  much ; 
bad  fitting  of  the  shoes;  nailing  back  in  the  quarters;  neglect  in  allowing 
the  feet  to  grow  dry  and  hard;  allowing  too  excessive  an  accumulation  of 
horn  at  the  heel,  etc. 

Treatment. — Remove  the  cause,  whether  it  be  neglect,  carelessness  or 
shoeing;  soak  the  foot  liberally  in  hot  water  (my  Liniment  Powders,  two 
tablespoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  hot  water,  will  be  of  great  assistance)  ;  with  a 
file  cut  down  through  the  horn,  across  the  crack,  close  up  to  the  coronet  to 
the  quick ;  clean  out  all  dirt ;  pack  with  my  Hoof  Grower  and  oakum  or 
lint,  to  keep  out  the  dirt ;  pare  out  the  sole  of  the  foot,  opening  out  the  heel 
freely;  the  surface  of  the  frog  may  be  trimmed  out  a  little,  but  never  touch 
the  sides.  Great  care  should  be  used  in  shoeing  and  expanding  the  heels. 
My  Renovator  Powders  will  act  as  a  tonic  for  the  stomach,  blood  and  gen- 
eral conditions.  If  you  use  my  Hoof  Grower  daily,  the  hoof  will  be  bright 
and  elastic.  To  make  new  hoof  apply  my  Hoof  Grower  to  the  coronet 
freely  and  often. 

Seedytoe. — Usually  caused  by  the  pressure  of  clips,  rough,  bad-fitting 
shoes ;  oftentimes  large  clips  are '  hammered  too  firmly  in  the  hoof,  which 
bruises  them.  In  a  recent  case,  open  it  up ;  cut  down  at  the  bottom ;  poul- 
ticefor  a  few  days.  Shoe. — Remove  the  pressure  by  cutting  down  the  crust; 
fill  it  in  with  tow  saturated  with  my  Hoof  Grower.  In  more  serious  cases 
where  bony  absorption  exists,  it  is  sometimes  necessary  to  cut  through  the 
wall;  apply  Blister  freely,  after  which  follow  directions  as  in  the  first  in- 
stances. 

Sand  Crack. — Remove  the  shoe;  to  allay 
inflammation  soak  the  foot  in  water  as  hot  as 
can  be  borne  with  the  hand.  (If  you  will  add 
two  tablespoonfuls  of  my  Liniment  Powder  to 
a  quart  of  the  hot  water  you  will  have  more 
immediate  results.)  With  a  file  cut  down  to 
the  quick. ^  Clean  out  the  dirt;  fill  in  the 
crevices  with  my  Hoof  Grower  and  then  pack 
in  a  little  oakum  or  lint;  level  the  foot  down 
at  the  quarter;  put  a  clip  on  each  side  of  the  toe;  use  bar  shoe; 
do  not  put  the  clips  too  tight;  apply  Hoof  Grower  to  the  cor- 
onet daily  to  stimulate  the  health  and  growth  in  the  hoof;  a 
cure  is  hardly  expected  in  a  bad  case. 

Contraction  of  the  Hoof  is  a  common  and  frequent 
cause  for  mysterious  lameness ;  frog  being  raised  by 
high  shoes  from  the  ground,  and  the  sole  being 
pared  too  much,  results  in  a  weakness  which  causes 
the  walls  of  the  hoof  to  come  together.  It  is  need- 
less to  comment  on  the  manner  to  prevent  the  con- 
traction^ as  conditions  and  methods  of  shoeing 
make  this  a  common  injury.     Although  one  of  the 


62 


prime  causes,  allowing  the  hoof  to  become  dry  and  hard  can  be  easily  over- 
come if  you  use  my  Perfection  Hoof  Dressing  and  Food  daily,  applying 
directly  to  the  hoof. 

Treatment  for  contraction,  of  course,  is  the  reverse,  or  expansion ;  shorten 
the  toe;  lower  the  foot;  open  the  heels  back  until  cut  to  the  quick;  pare 
the  soles  of  the  foot  closely  on  each  side  of  the  frog;  -do  not  cut  the  sides 
of  the  frog;  there  will  usually  be  inflammation,  which  should  be  allayed  by 
soaking  in  hot  water  (adding  two  tablespoonfuls  of  my  Liniment  Powders 
to  the  quart  of  hot  water  will  facilitate  in  allaying  the  soreness  and  inflam- 
mation). Apply  freely  my  Hoof  Grower  to  the  hoof,  frog  and  heels.  As 
soon  as  the  hoof  becomes  soft  and  pliable,  as  it  will,  begin  to  expand  the 
heels  by  the  use  of  wedges  in  the  shoe.  If  you  apply  my  Hoof  Grower  to 
the  coronet  twice  daily  it  will  stimulate  the  growth  of  a  new  hoof  and  in 
three  or  four  months  you  will  have  no  trouble,  as  a  new  hoof  will  take  the 
place  of  the  old  one,  and  if  properly  shod  and  expanded  the  horse's  foot 
wil.l  be  as  good  as  ever.  It  is  needless  for  me  to  say  my  Renovator  Powders 
twice  daily,  with  good  food,  fresh  air  and  pure  water  will  all  he!p  in  the 
improvement  of  the  condition  of  your  horse. 

Legs  and  Feet. — Examine  his  legs  and  feet;  if  swelling  or  heat  exists, 
something  worse  will  follow.  Oster-Cocus  is  the  finest  liniment  in  the  world 
for  swellings,  puffs  and  bunches  or  strains;  Wonder  Worker  is  unexcelled 
for  cuts,  wounds  and  abrasions. 

String  Halt,  the  habit  of  jerking  the  hind  limb  or  limbs  high  up  from  the 
ground  when  walking,  is  incurable. 

Flat  feet,  common  in  some  breeds,  in  the  forefeet;  a  broad,  low  heeled 
foot,  the  walls  not  upright  as  they  should  be ;  there  is  no  elasticity  to  this 
foot,  and  it  is  liable  to  bruise  sole;  pumiced  sole,  etc.;  these  horses  shouM  be 
shod  with  a  wide  web  shoe,  which  presses  on  the  wall  only — the  heel  and 
frog  not  to  be  pared. 

Clubfoot.— This  foot  has  the  walls  quite  perpendicular.  Mules  are  often 
clubfooted  behind.  Shoe  such  with  a  long  projecting  toe  piece ;  don't  pare 
the  toe,  but  lower  the  heels  all  you  can.     Make  the  heels  of  the  shoe  thin. 

Crooked  Foot.— One  side  of  the  foot  higher  than  the  other ;  they  generally 
interfere  and  stumble.  Shoe  to  overcome  the  defect,  protecting  with  proper 
boots. 

DO  YOU  CARE  ANYTHING  FOR  YOUR  HORSE, 
OR  HAS  HE  ANY  VALUE  TO  YOU  ? 
If  so,  read  this 

It  is  said  there  are  about  21,000,000  horses  in  the  United  States.  It  is  esti- 
mated of  these  16,000,000  of  them  are  lame,  and  12,000,000  are  lame  in  their 
feet,  and  of  these  12,000,000  foot-sore  horses,  10,000,000  are  made  lame  just 
because  of  neglect  to  properly  care  for  them.  From  the  neglect  their  hoofs 
become    Dry,  Hard,  Brittle,   Shelly,  soon   followed  by   Contraction. 

There  is  no  subject  that  calls  for  your  attention  more  than  this  matter  of

How  to  Tell  the  Age  of  a  Horse 


About  4  mos. 


It  is  often  important  to  be  able  to  tell  the  age  of  a  horse  with  reasonable 
accuracy,  and  we  can  do  so  more  plainly  by  the  aid  of  the  teeth  than  by  any 
other  way.  I  have  made  an  effort  to  explain  is  a  simple  manner,  by  descrip- 
tion and  illustration,  how  to  do  so.  At  first  the  jaw  is  small  to  accommo- 
date the  milk  teeth:  the  jaws  soon  become  larger  to  take  in  the  permanent 
ones.  The  front  teeth  or  nippers  are  usually  studied  with  more  success 
to  note  the  changes  in  the  age  of  the  horse,  and  they  enable  us  to  do  so 
very  accurately  up  to  the  age  of  eight  years.  Fairly  so  up  to  eighteen,  by 
the  plan  or  form  of  the  teeth.  When  two  weeks  old  the  central  nippers 
are  full  grown ;  in  five  or  six  weeks  another  incisor  will  appear  on  either 
side  of  the  two  first  In  two  months  they  will  have 
v  reached    their    natural    size,    and    between    the    second 

and  third  months,  the  second  will  have  overtaken 
the  first.  They  will  then  begin  to  wear  away  a 
little.  Between  the  sixth  and  ninth  months  another 
nipper  begins  to  appear  on  either  side  of  the  two 
first,  making  six  above  and  six  below,  and  completing 
the  colt's  mouth.  After  which  the  only  noticeable 
difference  between  the  second  and  third  years  is  a 
wearing  away  of  the  teeth.  The  teeth  are  cov- 
ered with  a  hard  substance  called  enamel.  It  cov- 
ers the  portion  of  the  teeth  which  appears  above  the 
gum,  and  as  time  goes  on  is  gradually  worn  away.  A 
portion  of  this  enamel  is  caved  inward  or  sunk  into 
the  body  of  the  teeth,  forming  a  small  pit  The  inside 
and  bottom  of  this  pit  becomes  blackened  by  food, 
and  constitutes  a  mark;  by  the  gradual  disappearance 
of  which  the  age  can  be  determined  with  great  ac- 
curacy up  to  about  eight  years.  At  the  age  of  a  year 
and  a  half  the  mark  in  the  central  nippers  will  be 
shorter  and  fainter,  and  that  in  the  other  nippers  will 
have  undergone  considerable  change,  and  all  the  nip- 
pers will  be  flat.  At  two  years  they  will  be  more 
plainly  marked.  The  central  prominent  teeth  are 
growing  down,  and  are  larger  than  the  others.  The 
groove  on  the  outer  convex  surface  is  the  mark,  and 
is  long,  narrow,  deep  and  black.  The  mark  on  the  next 
two  nippers  is  more  worn  out,  and  is  wearing  away 
on     the     corner     nippers.  Between     three     and     a 

half  and  four  years  the  central  nippers  have  attained 
to  nearly  their  whole  growth.  The  second  pair  will 
have  so  far  displaced  the  temporary  teeth  as  to  ap- 
pear through  the  gums,  where  the  corner  ones  will 
be  transmitted  and  at  length  worn  down.  At  four 
years  the  central  nippers  will  be  fully  developed,  the 
top  edge  somewhat  worn  off  and  the  mark  shorter, 
wider  and  fainter.     The  next  pair  will  be  up,  but  they

will  be  small,  with  the  mark  deep  and  extended  quite 
across.  At  four  and  a  half  years  or  near  to 
five,  the  corner  nippers  are  shed  and  the  permanent 
ones  begin  to  appear.  The  central  nippers  are  con- 
siderably worn  and  the  next  pair  are  beginning  to 
show  the  mark  of  age.  The  tush  has  now  protruded, 
and  is  fully  half  an  inch  in  height,  and  has  a  rounded 
prominence  with  grooves  on  the  inside.  At  five 
years  the  horse's  mouth  is  almost  perfect.  At  six 
years  the  mark  on  the  two  central  nippers  is  en- 
tirely worn  out,  and  on  the  next  pair  the  mark  is 
shorter,  broader  and  fainter,  and  on  the  corner  pair 
the  edges  of  the  enamel  arc  more  regular,  the  surface 
is  a  little  rubbed  or  worn,  but  only  on  the  exterior 
edge.  The  tush  has  attained  its  full  growth,  projects 
outward,  concave  within,  growing  to  a  point.  The 
extremity  somewhat  curved  as  shown  on  figure. 
At  seven  years  the  mark  is  not  only  worn  out  from 
the  two  center  nippers  (and  consequently  on  the  two 
next),  but  is  fast  wearing  away  on  the  two  corner 
teeth.  The  tush  also  begins  to  show  change.  The 
point  and  edges  are  rounded,  but  at  eight  years  the 
tush  is  rounder  in  every  way.  The  mark  has  disap- 
peared from  ail  the  bottom  nippers,  and  nearly  so  from 
the  top.  All  the  teeth  are  worn,  but  the  central  one  is 
still  large  and  retains  some  of  its  blackness.  There  is 
nothing  remaining  on  the  bottom  nippers  that  can  show 
the  age  of  the  horse  at  all  reliable.  The  upper  nippers 
may  give  indications,  but  nothing  certain.  After  the 
age  of  eight  years  there  are  no  points  that  will  deter- 
mine the  age  with  accuracy.  The  horse  that  is  fed  on 
corn  will  appear  older  than  the  one  that  is  fed  on  oats 
and  soft  food.  At  nine  years  the  nippers  show  a  most 
rounded  appearance.  Little  rema'ns  of  the  dental  bone, 
but  begins  to  show  the  dental  star.  At  ten  years  the 
same  change  on  the  middle  ones.     At  eleven  the  same 


4  yrs.  and 


6yrs. 


change     on     the     corner     ones. 


At     twelve     the 


corner  teeth  are  round,  and  the  dental  bone  very  ap- 
parent throughout.  At  thirteen  there  is  a  total  dis- 
appearance of  the  interior  enamel.  From  fourteen  to 
seventeen  they  assume  a  triangular  form.  The  central 
ones    at    fourteen    and    the    middle    ones     at    fifteen,  7  yrs. 

and  the  corner  ones    at   sixteen.      At   eighteen   this   triangular   shape  grows 
longer,  and  becomes  radically  contracted.

At  six  years  the  teeth  are  short  and  flat,  gums  extending  across  them  full 
and  nearly  straight;  passing  eight  the  gums  recede  or  shrink  away  from  the 
teeth  making  them  appear  longer;  at  ten  this  is  very  noticeable,  while  pass- 
ing twelve  the  gum  shows  almost  a  pointed' contact  with  the  center  of  the 
teeth;  at  eighteen  to  nineteen  the  gums  are  drawn  back  much  sharper,  leav- 
ing the  teeth  longer  and  narrower  in  appearance. 

With  increased  age  deep  hollows  above  the  eyes  will  appear,  and  the  lower 
lip  hangs  down  perceptibly.  Sometimes  teeth  are  "bishoped,"  cut  down  by 
saw,  or  file,  or  cutting  machines,  to  deceive  as  to  the  age  of  a  horse,  quite 
old  horses  being  made  to  appear  eight  to  nine.  In  trading  or  buying,  one 
should  exercise  care  in  the  study  of  the  animal's^  age. 

The  teeth  of  the  horse  require  frequent  attention.  Shorten  with  the  rasp 
the  lower  incisors  and  the  corners  of  the  upper  molars,  and  inner  side  of 
lower  teeth.

the  greater  part  of  nearly  all  liniments  and  washes  offered  to  the  public. 

The  Noted  Lameness,  soreness  and  stiffness,  from  being  tender  forward,  of 
track  and  driving  horses,  led  me  to  a  study  of  the  cause,  and  for  years  I 
have  devoted  my  energies  to  prepare  a  safe  and  reliable  remedy  to  alleviate 
and  cure  these  defects,  and  I  am  proud  to  present  to  the  horse  and  his 
friends  a  safe,  sure  and  convenient  remedy  which  will  relieve  and  prevent 
these  troubles,  thus  saving  the  horse  needless  pain  and  suffering,  and  man 
great  expense  and  loss..  It  is  a  well  established  and  settled  fact  in  the  minds 
of  horsemen  that  the  horse  requires  something  to  relieve  the  intense  strain 
imposed  upon  the  animal  in  this  era  of  "Record  Breaking  and  Making." 
"What  shall  we  use?"  is  the  question.  It  has  for  years  been  the  practice  of 
trackmen  to  resort  to  the  use  of  those  highly  irritating  and  dangerous  lini- 
ments and  nostrums  (often  propounded  by  ignorant  and^ unscrupulous  men). 
to  relieve  the  horse  of  pain  and  stiffness  after  hard  driving  and  work;  with 
the   never-failing  result  of  increased  soreness,  stiffness  and  lameness,  until 

67 


the  horse,  seeming  in  fine  form  to-day,  is  lame  the  next,  grows  worse  with 
the  usual  harsh  treatment,  soon  goes  dead  lame,  and  shortly  is  sold  as  a  has- 
been.  Use  this  liniment  once  and  be  satisfied  that  you  have  something  bet- 
ter than  you  ever  used  before.  Any  horseman  using  a  box  of  this  Liniment 
Powder,  and  not  being  entirely  satisfied  with  the  result,  can  have  his  money 
refunded  no  matter  where  he  buys  it. 

DIRECTIONS 

For  Body  Wash. — After  hard  work:  One  tablespoonful  of  powder  to  a 
quart  of  hot  water;  wash  with  sponge,  follow  with  dry  cloth  and  blanket. 
If  a  little  of  my  Veterinary  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  be  added,  you  will  have 
most  excellent  results.     We  make  a  Witch  Hazel  just  for  this  purpose. 

For  Leg  Wash. — Two  tablespoonfuls  of  powder  to  quart  of  hot  water; 
bathe  the  legs  with  sponge;  when  possible  allow  the  foot  to  stand  in  the 
bucket,  to  cover  the  ankles ;  a  few  minutes  hand  rubbing  will  relieve  all  the 
strain  and  soreness  ;    wipe  dry. 

For  Sponging  the  Mouth  and  Nostrils. — One  tablespoonful  of  powder  to 
.quart  of  hot  water.  Sponge  out  freely  mouth  and  nostrils ;  it  cools,  re- 
vives and  invigorates. 

As  a  Steaming  Liniment  nothing  can  be  better.  Dr.  Daniels'  Liniment 
Powder  or  Equine  Bath  will  not  lame  your  horse  by  contracting  skin,  mus- 
cles and  ligaments.  Does  not  incite  heat,  irritation  or  inflammation.  Will 
not  make  skin  dry  and  hard  or  the  hair  sticky,  coarse  and  rough.  Does  not 
blister,  sting  or  burn.  Will  not  weaken  and  stiffen  by  absorbing  the  natural 
muscle  oil.  Does  not  stupefy  the  muscles,  ending  in  rigidity,  atrophy  and 
partial  paralysis,  but  will  prevent  all  these  disasters,  and  keep  your  horse  in 
good  order. 

For  steaming  for  colds  and  head  troubles. — One  teaspoonful  of  powder  to 
quart  of  hot  water  (keep  hot  by  placing  hot  irons  in  pail).  Cover  the  head 
with  blanket  or  hood.    Result  will  surprise  yon. 

For  all  uses  except  body  wash  and  steaming  use  two  tablespoonfuls  of 
Liniment  Powder  to  a  quart  of  water. 

Sprains  and  Strains,  so  common  and  liable  to  spoil  a  horse  if  neglected  or 
not  treated  properly,  consist  in  the  main  from  over  stretching  of  the  mus- 
cles, tendons  or  ligaments.  At  this  time  some  remedy  is  required  for  relief, 
Daniels'  Liniment  Powder  will  surpass  your  expectations ;  it  will  prevent 
and  reduce  all  swellings,  extract  all  pain,  soreness  and  aches :  strengthens 
spine,  back,  ligaments,  muscles,  tendons,  and  removes  all  stiffness  from  the 
joints  and  bones.  Increases  brawn,  muscle  and  ambition;  gives  force  and 
energy ;  keeps  skin  clean  and  smooth ;  makes  hair  soft  and  glossy ;  invig- 
orates lungs  and  respiratory  organs;  cleans  the  head  and  nostrils;  tones 
up  the  muscular  organism  at  once.     Two  spoonfuls  to  quart  of  hot  water. 

Shoulder  Joint  Lameness. — The  horse  drags  his  toe,  throws  leg  out  at  each 
movement  of  the  limb.  By  turning  the  horse  nearly  in  a  circle  you  can  more 
readily  locate  the  shoulder  trouble. 

Treatment. — To  reduce  the  inflammation  which  is  sure  to  exist,  make 
alternate  applications  of  hot  and  cold  water,  bearing  in  mind  to  have  the 
water  as  hot  as  can  be  borne,  (If  you  add  two  tablespoonfuls  of  my  Lini- 
ment Powder  you  will  have  more  satisfactory  results.)     Cover  the  hot  cloths 

68 


J>^DB-  A-  CIXiNIELS7^^!^!^^^^! 


with  thick  dry  blankets.  This  helps  to  keep  them  warm  and  steam  the  shoul- 
der. As  soon  as  the  inflammation  is  allayed,  clip  or  shave  the  hair  off  imme- 
diately over  the  joint  where  you  are  to  blister.  Rub  in  thoroughly  some  of 
my  ABSORBENT  BLISTER;  tie  the  head  up  so  he  cannot  bring  it  in 
contact  with  the  shoulder.  Give  soft  bedding  as  the  horse  will  stamp  hard 
while  the  blister  is  working.  Keep  the  bowels  open;  give  soft  food;  bran 
mashes,  adding  twice  a  day  to  the  feed  my  RENOVATOR  POWDERS,  as 
a  tonic  to  the  system.  I  recommend  the  use  of  two  tablespoonfuls  of  my 
Liniment  Powder  dissolved  in  hot  water  for  all  sorts  of  inflammation;  this 
used  alternately  with  cold  water  will  be  found  the  most  satisfactory  treat- 
ment for  inflammatory  troubles,  and  I  would  suggest  also  that  you  NEVER 
blister  while  inflammation  exists;  you  simply  increase  the  lameness  if  you 
do  so.  If  you  do  not  care  to  go  to  the  expense  or  trouble  to  have  the  best 
treatment,  the  use  of  hot  water  alternating  with  cold  is  better  than  no  treat- 
ment at  all. 

Shoulder  Lameness.— A  straining  of  the  muscles  and  ligaments  which 
often  leads  to  Sweeny,  and  is  caused  by  slipping,  hard  ploughing,  and  acci- 
dents; indicated  by  the  horse  stepping 
longer  with  lame  and  shorter  with  the 
well  one;  points  the  leg  out,  and  carries 
it  to  the  .side.  Absolute  rest  is  required; 
applications  of  hot  water  alternating 
with  cold  until  the  inflammation  has  sub- 
sided, after  which  apply  my  ABSORB- 
ENT BLISTER  as  directed  in  Shoulder 
Joint  Lameness.  If  taken  at  first  indi- 
cations of  the  trouble,  frequent  applica- 
tion of  my  Oster-Cocus,  or  Bone, 
Nerve    and    Muscle    Liniment    will    give 

very   satisfactory   results.      Do    not    forget   the    benefit   to    be    derived    from 
keeping  the  bowels  open ;    feed  soft  foods 
Powders  twice  daily. 

Swelled  Leg.— From  standing,  lack  of  exercise. 


Dragging  the  forward  foot  an  indication 
of  Shoulder  Lameness 


bran  mashes  and  my  Renovator 


Apply  hot  water   (a  solu- 
tion  of  my   Liniment   Powder   is   better),   rub   dry   and   bandage    with    cold 
water  during  the  night;     apply  Oster-Cocus   two   or  three  times   daily;    do 
not  bandage  while  wet   with  Oster-Cocus.     Give  good   feed;     bran  mashes 
and  my  RENOVATOR  POWDERS  twice  a  day. 
Strain    of   the    Fetlock   Joint. — Give    rest.      Re- 
duce  the   inflammation   by   standing  in   a   bath   of 
hot  Liniment  Powder  sufficient  to  cover  the  foot, 
two    tablespoonfuls    to-  a    quart    of    water,     fre- 
quently   removing    the    foot   and    plunging   into    a 
bath   of   cold   water   for   a    moment    or   two   at   a 
time,  repeating  two  or  three   times   daily.     Band- 
age at  night  with  Wonder  Worker  Lotion^  dur- 
ing   the    day    rub    on    my    Oster-Cocus    Liniment. 
In    severe    cases    a   plaster    cast    may    have    to    be 
worn    for   three   or   four   weeks. _    If   swelling  re- 
mains after  the  lameness  is  dissipated,  remove  by 
applying  my  Absorbent. 
Strains  of  the  Loin  and  Back. — One  tablespoonful  of  Liniment  Powder  to 

69 


^15i 


&  A-  ODaniels'  Medicines 


3es^§^ 


•a  quart  of  water.  Bathe  freely  with  sponge.  Wet  a  woolen  cloth  as  hot 
as  can  be  borne  and  lay  over  the  back  and  loins,  covering  with  a  blanket 
(makes  the  finest  steamer  possible).  Keep  the  bowels  open  with  soft  foods 
and  bran  mashes,  adding  my  Renovator  Powders  thereto  twice  a  day.  After 
each  steaming  rub  on  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment.  Suspend  in  a  sling;  give 
cold  water  douches.     Electric  treatment  is  a  help. 

Breaking  Down,  Suspensory  Ligament. — The  principal  mainstay  of  the 
fetlock.     Sometimes  mistaken  for  rupture  of  the  tendon. 

Treatment. — Place  in  a  sling.  Reduce  the  inflammation  by  applying  hot 
explications  of  LINIMENT  POWDER  (two  tablespoonfuls  to  a  quart  of 
water).  Apply  splints,  and  bandage  with  WONDER  WORKER  LOTION. 
Feed  soft  foods,  give  my  RENOVATOR  POWDERS  twice  daily 
in  the  food.  A  permanent  thickening  generally  is  left.  When  the  animal 
is  recovered  sufficiently  to  use  the  leg,  take  off  the  splints;  apply  my  AB- 
SORBENT BLISTER,  repeating  two  or  three  times  if  necessary. 

Rupture  of  the  Suspensory  may  occur  in  fore  legs  in  trotters  and  hunters, 
while  in  draught  horses  it  appears  in  the  hind  legs  more  frequently. 

Treatment. — Rest  for  a  month  or  more;    reduce  inflammation  by  applica- 
tions, hot  and  cold.    Put  in  sling  and  in  a  week  apply  plaster  cast,  after  which 
blister  with  my  Absorbent.     Don't  expect  to  remove  all  the  thickening,  and 
you  may  be  sure  once  this  injury  occurs,  the  limb  will  never  be  as  good  as  before. 
Sprung  Knees,    when    not  from   deformity,     if    taken    at    the 
start,  may  be  treated  with  more  or  less  satisfactory  results,  hot 
applications  alternating  with  cold  showers,  friction  of  rubbing, 
using  my   Oster-Cocus  Liniment,   gives  excellent  results,   while 
the  application  of  my  Absorbent  Blister,  from  a  little  above  to 
a   little   below  the  knee-joint,   is   suggested  when   other  efforts  - 
are  not  satisfactory.     Rest,  of  course,  is  of  first  importance. 

Sprains  of  the  Back  Tendons. —  In  most  cases  of  this  kind 
it  is  the  ligaments  and  not  the  tendons  that  are  injured.  The 
horse  is  lame;  the  part  is  hot  and  swollen.  The  limb  is  he1d 
forward,  hardly  touching  the  ground.  If  you  pinch  the  foot, 
the  animal  evinces  pain.  In  sprains  of  this  nature,  you  must 
give  absolute  rest.  Foment  with  solutions  of  hot  LINIMENT 
POWDER.  Alternate  with  showers  of  cold  water  until  in- 
flammation is  subdued.  Then  apply  my  OSTER-COCUS 
LINIMENT  during  the  day,  or  put  on  a  thick  woolen  bandage 
saturated  with  WONDER  WORKER 
LOTION.  Feed  soft  foods  and  bran 
mashes,  adding  one  of  my  RENO- 
VATOR POWDERS  thereto  twice 
a  day.  In  applying  bandages  begin  below  and  bind 
upwards  towards  the  knee.     High  heels  on  shoe. 

Navicular  Disease  of  the  Foot. — Difficult  to 
cure  but  easily  relieved  with  care  and  patience. 
Put  the  foot  so  troubled  in  a  hot  bath  of  my  Lini- 
ment Powder  once  or  twice  a  day.  Have  the  bath 
at  least  six  inches  deep,  alternately  plunging  the 
foot  a  few  seconds  at  a  time  into  cold  water.  Apply 
to    the    coronet    my    Oster-Cocus    Liniment.      Fre-

quently  a  Blister  is  required,  and  I  recommend  my  Absorbent  for  this  pur- 
pose. It  may  be  repeated  two  or  three  times.  Do  not  work  while  treating 
and  turn  to  pasture  when  possible. 

Laminitis,  Founder.  Cause.  —  Like 
navicular  disease  of*  the  foot,  Laminitis 
or  founder  or  fever  in  the  foot  may  be 
considered  one  of  the  most  dangerous 
forms  of  lameness.  It  may  be  acute  or 
chronic — the  first  indicated  by  a  high 
state  of  excitement,  and  inflammation, — 
the  second,  by  a  morbid  insensible  feel- 
ing. The  first  or  acute  stage  can  be  in- 
variably cured.  The  second  or  chronic 
stage  is  practicably  incurable  and  this  is  one  of  the  most  painful  of  diseases. 
The  acute  stage  can  be  easily  detected.  It  begins  with  shivering  and  un- 
easiness, the  animal  refuses  food,  moves  the  fore  feet  about  uneasily,  the 
mouth  is  hot,  pulse  is  quick,  horse  is  sometimes  inclined  to  lie  down,  points 
with  his  muzzle  to  his  feet,  which  will  be  found  hot  and  tender.  Fever  now 
sets  in  with  quick,  full  pulse,  running  60  or  70  beats  per  minute.  Animal 
acts  stiff  and  moves  with  great  difficulty  and  with  feet  well  drawn  under 
him,  backs  with  great  reluctance,  and  when  forced  to  back,  drags  his  feet, 
one  after  the  other,  and  indicates  pain.  Causes. —  Any  overtasking  of  the 
feet,  pounding  on  hard,  rough,  or  frozen  roads,  standing  while  overheated 
and  exhausted.  Bad  shoes,  driving  in  water  while  warm,  washing  the  feet 
^hile  warm  and  neglecting  to  dry  them,  too  free  eating  of  oats  and  other 
grains. 

Treatment. — Treat  the  difficulty  at  once.  Remove  the  shoe,  soak  the  feet 
in  a  tub  of  hot  water,  or,  better  still,  solution  of  hot  Liniment  Powder,  rasp 
the  wall  level  with  the  sole,  but  do  not  pare  the  sole.  Give  plenty  of  water; 
give  immediately  30-drop  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops  every 
two  hours  for  twenty-four  hours  or  until  temperature  is  normal.  Blanket 
well,  and  keep  warm.  Keep  wet  cloths  around  the  horse's  feet,  and  stand 
on  wet  clay  or  wet  sawdust.  After  profuse  perspiration  and  reduction  of 
the  fever,  take  off  the  blankets  that  have  become  wet  and  put  on  dry  ones. 
Give  the  legs  hand  rubbing.  Feed  soft  foods  entirely,  and  no  grain  until 
recovery.  Bran  mashes  and  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day.  Have  a 
roomy  stall,  free  from  draughts.  When  convalescing  apply  my  Hoof  Grower 
around  the  coronet  heel  and  frog.  Use  simple  shoe  plates.  Exercise  easily 
and  regularly.  Good  care  and  nursing  will  cure  your  horse.  If  the  horse 
is  at  all  constipated,  give  one  of  my  Physic  Balls. 

Knuckling  of  the  Fetlock  Joint,  resulting  from  disease  or  from  ring-bone, 
side-bone,  and  diseases  of  the  foot,  being  put  to  hard  work  too  young — more 
likely  in  hind  than  in  fore  legs,  leads  to  various  degrees  of  hrr.sr.ess.  There 
is  little  hope  of  effecting  a  cure. 

Treatment. — First  rest  from  work,  turn  loose,  give  particular  care  to  the 
feet  and  shoeing  with  a  high  heel :  of  course  the  lameness  may  be  somewhat 
modified  by  soaking,   sweating,   and   the   use   of   my   Oster-Cocus   Liniment. 

71

In  many  desperate  cases  the  surgeon  may  perform  an  operation  with  good 
results. 

Poll  Evil. — As  soon  as  the  swelling  becomes  a  little  soft,  have  it  opened; 
make  the  opening  large  enough  to  admit  of  swabbing  out  the  pus,  which  must 
be  done  twice  a  day  until  no  more  pus  forms ;  wash  out  daily  with  solu- 
tion of  Carbo-Negus  (one-half  teaspoon  to  quart  of  water)  ;  do  not  use 
the  swab  roughly ;  pour  in  Wonder  Worker  Liniment  and  keep  there  with 
bandage  or  cloth ;  give  .good  strengthening  food  and  Daniels'  Renovator 
Powders  twice  a  day,  mashes  often. 

This  disease  is  a  trying  and  difficult  disease  to  handle,  and  oftentimes 
delay  in  proper  treatment  makes  it  incurable,  hence  prompt  and  proper  at- 
tention .should  be  given  at  once. 

Fistula  of  the  Withers. — If.  pus  has  not  formed  reduce  swelling  and  in- 
flammation by  fomentations  of  hot  Liniment  Powder.  Give  one  of  Daniels' 
Physic  Balls,  feeding  bran  mashes  often  and  good  oats  and  hay.  Brace  the 
blood  up  with  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day  in  feed.  Do  not 
puncture,  but  rub  Oster-Cocus  on  a  few  times.  If  pus  is  formed  or  shows 
strong  indications  of  forming,  bring  to  a  head  with  poultice  and  open;  allow 
for  draining.  Syringe  out  with  solution  of  Daniels'  Veterinary  Carbo- 
Negus;  then  inject  to  the  seat  of  the  wound  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker 
Liniment;  dress  once  a  day,  saturating  and  keeping  the  opening  wet  with 
Wonder  Worker. 

Sore  Forward,  Tender  Feet,  "Quitter,"  on  the  track  or  road,  pounding  too 
much  for  him,  courage  and  speed  go  together;  three  large  spoonfuls  of  my 
Liniment  Powder  to  quart  of  hot  water ;  soak  the  foot  and  ankle  therein, 
or  with  a  pad  bind  the  foot  and  ankle  and  pour  the  hot  liniment  upon  it^ 
soak  as  long  as  you  have  time  between  the  heats,  and  just  before  starting 
put  on  a  little  Oster-Cocus ;    repeat  after  each  heat ;    you  can  win  oftener. 

Slipping  Stifle. — A  hobble  or  strap  should  be  placed  around  the  pastern  of 
the  affected  limb,  and  a  rope  six  feet  long  attached  to  it.  This  should  be 
brought  forward  between  the  fore  legs  and  secured  to  a  collar  placed  on  the 
neck  of  the  horse,  the  hind  foot  pulled  well  forward,  and  with  the  rope  and 
collar  retained  in  that  position.  Then  apply  Daniels'  Absorbent  Blister  all 
around  the  stifle  and  keep  the  horse  secured  in  this  way  for  two  weeks, 
night  and  day.  Give  attention  to  feed;  soft  and  frequent  bran  mashes, 
adding  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily.     A  sling  is  required. 

Cording,  Cramp  (common  to  track  horses). — Wet  a  blanket  in  hot  Lini- 
ment Powder,  bind  over  the  loins  to  steam,  rub  dry  and  apply  lightly  Oster- 
Cocus  ;  give  30  drops  Daniels'  No.  1  Colic  Cure  morning  and  night.  When 
affecting  the  legs  bathe,  swathe  and  bandage  in  the  Liniment  Powder,  and 
rub  on  Oster-Cocus  freely.  In  all  treatment  for  lameness  I  use  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  in  the  feed  to  give  strength  and  courage,  and  to  tone  up  the 
system  and  make  new  blood. 

Don't  Work  the  Curry-Comb  too  Much. — The  curry-comb  should  be  used 
sparingly,  because  it  is  too  harsh  in  the  hands  of  a  rough  attendant.  In 
nearly  every  case  a  good  brush  and  a  wash  with  a  sponge  wet  in  solution 
of  Dr.  Daniels'  Liniment  Powder,  two  tablespoonfuls  to  quart  of  water, 
will  clean  the  skin,  and  make  the  hair  bright  and  glossy. 

Capped  Hock. — Make  hot  applications  of  Liniment  Powder  and  bandage 

72 


«— * ' — 2— | 

dry  during  the  day  until  inflammation  is  removed ;  a  good  blister  should 
now  be  applied,  repeating  two  or  three  times;  if  this  does  not  absorb  the 
swelling  a  surgeon  should  open  the  swelling.  Renovator  Powders  in  feed 
for  tonic. 

Quittor. — There    may    be    said    to    be    four     kinds ;     simple 
quittor,  which    is  a  local  inflammation  of  the  skin  and  tissues 
of  the  coronet,  when  not  promptly  and  properly  treated,  leads 
to  ulceration  and   sloughing,   and   strangles   circulation,   which 
leads    to    much    suffering    and    final    permanent    injury    to    the 
foot;   this   form   of  quittor  is   caused  by  bruises,  and  peculiar 
constitutional  conditions.    Symptoms  of  a  simple  quittor:  lame- 
ness, with  small  tumor  on  the  coronary  region  tense  and  hot,  the  swelling 
often  enveloping  the  leg  to   the  knee  or  hock,   fever,  general   dullness,   loss 
of  appetite,  and  thirst;   the  ulcer  breaks  and  suppurates  freely. 

Treatment,  Simple  Quittor. — Remove  at  once  the  inflammation,  using  a 
stream  of  cold  water  constantly,  if  oossible  arrange  a  sling  to  support  the 
animal,  apply  a  loose  bandage  "funnel  shaped"  about  the  leg,  and  allow  a 
smaill  stream  of  cold  water  to  run  through  the  bandage  until  the  inflamma- 
tion is  removed  or  you  can  detect  pus  in  the  swelling.  If  pus  has  formed 
make  hot  applications  (poultice  linseed  meal)  and  as  soon  as  desirable  open 
the  tumor,  but  do  not  divide  the  coronary  band ;  cleanse  with  a  soaking  and 
bathe  in  warm  water  into  which  put  my  Carbo-Negus  (tablespoonful  to  quart 
of  water).  Now  dress  with  applications  of  Wonder  Worker  Lotion,  bandag- 
ing with  oakum  or  absorbent  cotton  wet  with  Wonder  Worker  packed  into 
the  openings,  repeating  the  soaking  and  dressing  daily,  if  required,  until 
healing  takes  place.  Should  granulations  form,  cut  ihem  off  with  a  sharp, 
clean  knife,  poultice  for  a  day,  clean  and  cauterize  with  lunar  caustic  and 
firmly  bandage. 

Another  form  of  Quittor,  not  common,  attacks  the  tendons,  the  ligaments 
and  even  .the  bones  ;  these  are  usually  formed  by  the  lack  of  treatment  of 
a  simple  case  of  Quittor,  and  results  often  in  permanent  lameness  or  death 
of  the  animal,  and  this  form  of  Quittor  is  announced  by  the  sudden  in- 
crease of  all  the  conditions  of  the  case.  When  this  form  of  Quittor  occurs 
independent  of  a  simple  quittor,  the  symptoms  are  indeed  quite  blind;  at 
first  a  little  lameness,  increasing  during  a  couple  of  davs,  however,  to  such 
an  extent  as  to  prevent  the  use  of  the  leg  at  all.  Examination  the  first  day 
or  so,  would  lead  one  to  think  the  foot  not  the  cause  of  the  lameness.  In 
a  few  days,  however,  say  four  or  five,  a  tumor  may  be  felt  onthe  heel  or 
quarter,  which  grows  rapidly,  the  temperature  rises,  pulse  rapid,  perspira- 
tion and  every  symptom  of  suffering.  May  lie  flat  on  his  side,  legs  extended, 
the  swelling  continues  up  the  leg,  and  several  days  are  required  to  develop 
the  tumor  owing  to  the  mass  of  tissue  ligaments  and  tendons  involved. 
Prompt  treatment  alone  will  be  of  any  avail.  Make  every  effort  by  the  use 
of  cold  water  as  previously  stated  to  allay  the  inflammation.  As  soon  as 
the  tumor  forms  it  must  be  opened  deep  into  the  swelling,  all  the  openings 
showing  pus  must  be  probed  and  cleaned,  if  these  fistulous  openings  extend 
well  down  to  the  bottom  of  the  foot  (as  the  probing  will  tell),  pare  the 
sole  down  thin  and  open  from  below;  this  will  allow  for  the  speedy  d:s- 
charge  of  the  pus,  the  openings  must  be  cleansed  thoroughly,  syringing  them 
put  two  or  three  times  daily  with  my  Carbo-Negus  (tablespoonful  to  quart.

of  water),  filling  them  with  Wonder  Worker  Lotion,  stopping  up  the  open- 
ings with  oakum  or  cotton  wet  in  Wonder  Worker,  held  in  place  with  band- 
ages ;    this  form  is  disappointing  in  treatment. 

The  most  common  form  of  Quittor,  caused  by  bruises,  calk  wounds,  over- 
reaching, etc.,  are  easily  detected,  and  if  proper  treatment  were  given  the 
causes,  the  quittor  would  not  exist  in  this  form — hence,  be  prompt  to  treat 
any  injury  to  the  coronet,  as  indicated  in  this  work,  and  you  won't  have  to 
worry  about  the  quittor.  For  those  who  neglect  we  may  say,  when  you  see 
the  swelling  which  shows  itself  at  the  coronet,  you  will  have  to  act,  and  at 
once,  or  your  horse  is  "all  in." 

Treatment. — Hot  applications  of  Liniment  Powder,  poultice  until  you  can 
discover  the  pus  in  the  tumor;  open  it  for  the  free  escape  of  the  pus,  probe, 
and  wash  out  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  dress  with  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion,  repeating  daily. 

Dr.  Daniels'  Liniment  Powder  for  Family  Use 

is  tinequaled  by  any  preparation  or  so-called  liniment  ever  offered  to  the 
public.  A  little  hot  water  makes  as  much  as  you  want,  as  strong  as  required. 
Prepared  on  medicinal  lines  with  great  care  from  the  best  and  purest  ingredi- 
ents obtainable.  Always  softens  the  cords  and  muscles ;  always  takes  out 
soreness,  pain  and  ache. 

Directions. — For  steaming  for  cold,  head  troubles  and  catarrh,  one  tea- 
spoonful  to  quart  of  hot  water ;  keep  it  hot  and  steaming.  Cover  the  head  so 
as  to  breathe  in  the  steam  arising.  Results  will  never  fail  to  prove  satis- 
factory. 

For  Strains,  swellings  or  soreness  of  any  kind,  two  tablespoonfuls  of  pow- 
der with  hot  water.  With  hot  cloths  bathe  the  affected  part  for  twenty  to 
thirty  minutes;  wring-  out  and  bind. hot  cloths  wet  in  this  solution.  Use  hot 
water  bottle  to  keep  the  pack  warm  as  long  as  possible,  after  wh^ch  rub  on 
Oster-Cocus  Liniment. 

Swollen  Feet  and  Ankles,  Aching  Legs. — Bathe  and  soak  in  hot  Liniment 
Powder  (two  tablespoonfuls  to  quart  of  water)  for  half  hour,  keeping  the 
bath  hot  as  can  stand;    then  rub  on  Oster-Cocus. 

For  Bath. — Use  as  soap;   delightful;  no  itching. 

Rheumatism, — Bathe  or  soak  (two  tablespoonfuls  to  quart  of  hot  water) 
the  parts  affected  with  my  Liniment  Powder  for  half  hour  or  more,  and 
apply  Oster-Cocus  Liniment. 

Neuralgia. — Treat  same  as  rheumatism,  but  bind  on  as  a  hot  pack  and  use 
water  bottle   (hot)   after  which  rub  on  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment. 

Toothache. — Take  a  bit  of  absorbent  cotton,  wet  it,  sprinkle  on  a  pinch 
of  powder  and  apply  over  and  above  the  tooth  and  gum.  If  ulcerated,  bathe 
with  hot  Liniment.  Powder,  externally  also,  and  apply  hot  pack  of  same. 
Use  hot  water  bottle  to   retain  the  heat. 

For  Shaving. — After  shaving,  wash  the  face  with  warm  water,  adding  a 
pinch  of  the  powder ;  it  heals  and  makes  the  skin  soft. 

Corns  and  Bunions.— Soak  in  solution,  two  tablespoonfuls  to  quart  of  water, 
hot  as  can  be  borne,  for  half  an  hour;  it  will  not  cure  them,  but  it  will 
remove  the  soreness. 

For  a  hundred  other  aches  nothing  equals  Liniment  Powder.

DSTER"  CO  CUS 
LINIMENT 

OSTER-COCUS  OIL 

For  Bone,  Nerve  and  Muscle  Aches.  "  Blots  Out  Pain" 
in  Man  or  Beast.  Anywhere.  Any  Kind.  It  Pene- 
trates and  Gets  There.  It  Does  Its  Own  Work  and 
It  Works  All  the  Time.  Removes  Swellings,  Bunches 
and  Lameness. 

As  a  Stable  Liniment,  for  removing  Shoe  Boils, 
Wind  Puffs,  Splints,  Spavins,  Curb,  Ring-bone, 
Sweeny,  Goitre,  Atrophy  of  Muscles,  Navicular  Dis- 
ease, etc.,  it  has  no  equal  and  there  is  nothing  like  it 
for  Sprains  and  Strains,  in  man  or  beast. 

Remember  if  you  want  a  Colic  Cure  or  Cough 
Drops,  or  medicines  for  internal  use,  Daniels  makes 
them,  but  Daniels  knows,  as  you  know,  that  ex- 
ternal and  internal  medicines  should  not  be  the  same-  Many  of  these 
all-round  internal  and  external  so-called  liniments  are  actually  poisonous, 
and  often  leave  traces  and  ills  which  years  of  treatment  cannot  remove. 
Many  things  in  drugs  can  be  used  on  'the  outside  which  cannot  be  used 
inside,  same  for  horse  or  man.  Don't  give  your  horse  any  medicines  which 
you  would  be  afraid  to  take  yourself.  Remember  this  fact :  Prompt  treat- 
ment gets  you  the  best  results.  Whenever  reasonable  and  mild  treatment  will 
do  the  work,  it  is  safer,  cheaper,  less  tortuous  to  the  animal  or  yourself;  use 
extreme  measures  only  as  a  last  resort.  To  cure  with  my  OSTER-COCUS 
Liniment,  follow  my  instructions  and  remember  my  warrant. 

For  Strains  and  Sprains  Dr.  Daniels'  Liniment  is  wonderful  in  its  action; 
first  in  such  cases  remove  the  extreme  inflammation  with  hot  applications, 
then  rub  on  my  Liniment  freely,  repeating  from  time  to  time  until  relieved. 
In  these  troubles  the  Liniment  may  be  too  strong,  if  so,  reduce  with  warm 
water.     Some  horses  have  quite  tender  skin. 

Stiff  Joints. — Steam  and  bandage  with  hot  applications,  rubbing  well  and 
repeating  until  muscles  are  stimulated  and  strengthened,  after  which  apply 
my  OSTER-COCUS.  Repeat  until  relieved.  Do  not  rub  in  too  hard.  Re- 
duce the  Liniment  if  too  strong.  ^^\lUUU{i'L% •vV\^)1;K^\\\\,^S^. 

Shoe  Boils.— Capped  e'bow.  If  of  recent  origin,  hot 
applications  of  my  Liniment  Powder  to  soften  the  swell- 
ing and  reduce  inflammation,  after  which  rub  on  Dan- 
iels' Liniment  (Oster-Cocus)  freely  and  full  strength. 
If  pus  is  formed  it  must  be  opened  and  washed  with 
Carbo-Negus.  As  long  as  swelling  remains,  apply  the 
Liniment.  Feed  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  with 
bran  mashes  for  blood  and  condition.  Give  Physic  Ball 
as  a  laxative.  Sometimes  one  has  to  resort  to  poul- 
ticing when  they  have  been  too  long  neglected.

Sweeny  of  Shoulder. — Steam  with  hot  water  or  Lini- 
ment Powder  for  inflammation  freely.  Rub  on  OSTER- 
COCUS  Liniment  freely  two  or  three  times  daily. 
(Often  requires  Blister.  OSTER-COCUS  freely  used 
will  produce  just  the  right,  kind  of  blister  required. 
Grease  the  leg  well  below  the  shoulder  to  prevent  the 
Liniment  working  where  it  is  not  required.)  Exercise 
and  good  feed,  with  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders 
mornir.g  and  night  for  a  few  weeks;  in  obstinate  cases 
use  my  Absorbent.  Sweeny  of  Shoulder  is  more  often 
caused  by  injury  below  than  at  the  shoulder. 

Atrophy.— ^Wasting  of  any  muscles,  like  Sweeny,  etc. 
Give  muscle-building  food1,  with  treatment  same  as  for 
Sweeny. 

Callouses. — To  Remove:    Rub  on  to  the  calloused  or  thickened  part  Dan- 
iels' Bone,  Nerve  and  Muscle  Liniment   (OSTER-COCUS)   twice  daily  for 
three   days,  then   once   a   day    for   a   few   days,   rubbing   in    well.      In    som*; 
cases  my  Absorbent  Blister  will  prove  very  satisfactory  to  use. 
Spavin  (Bone). — Some  cases  can  be  cured.     Those  low  down  are  usually 
curable;    those    Jiigh   up,   involving   the   true  hinge,   are   incur- 
able.    At  least  two  or  three   months'  rest,  good    feed    (extra 
allowance)    and   my   Renovator    Powders    for   digestion,   blood 
and  tonic.     Hot  applications  two  or  three  times  daily,  to  re- 
lieve   soreness    and    to    soften,    preceding    absorption.      Then 
apply  my  OSTER-CdCUS  twice  daily.    In  obstinate  cases  use 
my  Absorbent  Blister.     Grease  the  leg  below  to  avoid  blister 
where  it  is  not  required.     After  blistering,  clean  with  solution 
of    Carbo-Negus,    and    repeat   blister    in    two    or   three   weeks, 
and  heal  with  my  Wonder  Worker  Liniment.     Repeat  blister 
until   relieved ;    two-week  intervals. 

Spavin  (Bog  or  Blood)  is  found  just  a  little  in  front  of  the 
hock,  a  round,   smooth  swelling  showing  a   full  vein   running 

Bone  Spavin      up  an(j  down  its  surface. 

Treatment. — First  of  all  complete  rest.  Hot  applications 
to  remove  inflammation.  Apply  OSTER-COCUS  two  or 
three  times  daily.  Repeat  daily  for  ten  days  or  two  weeks. 
If  not  relieved  use  my  Absorbent  Blister;  in  two  or  three 
v/eeks  repeat.  Heal  with  Wonder  Worker  Liniment.  Good 
feed,  with  my  Renovator  Powders,  for  condition. 

Spavin  (Occult). — Difficult  to  determine,  but  often  the 
cause  of  unknown  lameness  ;  rest  is  imperative.  Good  feed 
and  proper  tonic  is  also  necessary.  Hot  applications  to  re- 
move inflammation.  Rub  on  OSTER-COCUS  twice  daily 
for  a  few  davs,  and  continue  treatment  same  as  for  bog 
spavin.  SPavln 

Bony  Enlargements. — Likely  to  occur  from  external  injuries  on  any  bone 
in  the  body.  Treatment  in  general :  Remove  the  inflammation,  and  in  new 
or   mild  cases   apply  Dr.   Daniels'   Nerve   and   Muscle   Liniment    (OSTER-

COCUS),   but  in   long-standing   or   severe    cases,   apply  Daniels'    Absorbent 
Blister ;    it  will  remove  soreness,  lameness  and  the  bunch. 

Spasm  of  the  Thigh. — Cramps  in  the  hind  leg  generally  occuring  in  cold 
weather,  sometimes  from  severe  exertions,  sometimes  thought  to  be  trouble 
in  the  fetlock  joint. 
Treatment. — Rub  well  with  Oster-Cocus  Liniment ;  repeat  until  relieved. 
Wind  Puffs. — Bathe  with  hot  Liniment  Powder  (or  hot  water  when  you 
don't  want  the  best),  and  bandage  during  the  night  with  cold  water,  using 
a  small  pad  little  larger  than  the  swelling,  of  cork  of  similar  material,  bind 
it  over  the  swelling  firmly,  but  not  tight  enough  to  stop  circulation.  During 
the  day  remove  bandages  and  apply  Daniels'  Liniment  (Oster-Cocus).  Un- 
less put  to  the  same  strain  which  caused  them  first,  and  rest  enough  be 
given,  they  are  not  likely  to  appear  again. 

Sore  Muscles.— Apply  Daniels'  Liniment,  light  hand  rubbing  two  or  three 
times  daily  until  relieved.     Reduce  if  too  strong  with  warm  water. 

Stocking,  Swelled  Leg. — Sequel  of  some  special  disease,  or  from  strain 
or  general  debility,  washing  and  leaving  wet,  exposure,  neglect,  standing  in 
narrow  stall  and  without  exercise,  bandaging  too  tightly, 
chafing  or  injury.  When  from  no  apparent  cause,  simply 
standing  without  exercise,  it  is  a  good  plan  to  give  a  physic. 
One  of  Daniels'  Physic  Balls  is  handy  to  give  and  satisfactory 
in  results.  Change  the  feed  (don't  give  corn  or  meal)  ;  give 
roots,  bran  mashes  and  laxative  foods,  adding  twice  daily  one 
of  my  Renovator  Powders :  rub  on  lightly  a  little  of  Dr. 
Daniels'  Nerve  and  Muscle  Liniment  twice  daily. 
Sore  Cords. — Make  hot  applications,  if  inflammation  exists;  alternate  with 
cold  for  a  few  minutes  at  a  time,  after  which  apply  OSTER-COCUS  Lini- 
ment; don't  rub  too  hard;  it  penetrates  and  does  its  own  work.  Reduce 
with  water  if  too  strong. 

Sore  Throat,  Colds,  Etc.— In  all  cases  rub  the  throat  well  with  OSTER- 
COCUS  Liniment;  it  will  give  quick  relief.  Lumps  or  swelling  in  throat 
can  be  reduced  by  applying  my  Liniment  Powder  as  a  hot  bath,  to  soften 
the  swellings,  and  then  rubbing  with  OSTER-COCUS  Liniment.  Repeat 
until  relieved.     Renovator  Powders  in  feed  for  tonic ;    repeat  until  relieved. 

Thoroughpin  is  found  at  the  back  of  the  hock,  in  the  hollows,  consisting 
of  round  soft  swellings.  The  cure  and  treatment  depend  upon  the  kind 
of  limb.  If  it  comes  on  a  horse  having  sickle  hock  or  crooked  hind  legs 
with  short  hock,  there  is  but  small  chance  of  a  cure.  With  a  good  length 
hock,  a  fairly  straight  leg,  with  good  size  bones,  we  have  a  strong  limb 
which  warrants  a  treatment  for  complete  removal. 

Treatment. — Complete  rest.  Hot  applications  for  the  inflammation ;  apply 
OSTER-COCUS  morning  and  night.  Repeat  for  two  weeks,  daily;  firmiy 
fixed,  or  those  of  long  standing  require  sharp  blisters.  Daniels'  Absorbent 
works  nicely  for  this  purpose.  At  the  end  of  a  week  or  ten  days,  wash  with 
Csrbo-Negus,  clean,  repeat.  The  enlargement  will  be  reduced  in  size,  if 
not  entirely  removed. 

Goitre. — An  enlargement  of  the  thryoid  gland,  forming  a  kind  of  tumor, 
one  side  or  both.    Feed  for  general  hea'lth  and  condition.  Apply  my  OSTER-

« — * 1 — a 

COCUS  freely  just  to  the  swelling  for  a  few  days,  or  my  ABSORBENT 
can  be  used  with  good  results. 

Rheumatism. — Bathe  and  bandage  in  hot  Liniment  Powder,  or  even  hot 
'water;  after  which  rub  on  Daniels'  Liniment  freely  but  don't  rub  it  too 
hard,  as  you  may  blister  some  horses  too  soon ;  if,  however,  you  wet  the 
hair  with  warm  water  you  can  use  it  more  freely  and  get  the  best  results. 
Good  food,  bran  mashes,  with  my  Renovator,  will  soon  put  in  condition. 

Neuralgia. — Make  hot  applications  or  steam  well  the  affected  parts,  after 
which  rub  in  Daniels'  Bone  and  Muscle  Liniment  (OSTER-COCUS),  re- 
peating until  relieved.  Generous  feed,  adding  my  Renovator  Powders  twice 
daily  for  blood  and  system. 

The  more  you  steam  and  heat  in  this  trouble  the  sooner  relief  will  follow. 
My  Liniment  Powder  in  solution  is  a  wonder  for  steaming  ;  in  the  treatment 
of  Neuralgia  and  Rheumatism  use  a  tablespoonful  to  a  quart  of  hot  water, 
and  you  will  be  amply  rewarded. 

Spavins,  Wind  Puffs,  and  all  Similar  Swellings. — When  inflammation 
exists  make  applications  of  LINIMENT  POWDER  before  using  any  other 
remedy,  and  you  will  find  that  you  will  have  more  satisfactory  results. 

Splints. — Splints  are  found  usually  on  the  inside  of  the  fore 
leg;  from  the  knee  downward  to  about  the  third  principal  can- 
on bone,  although  they  sometimes  appear  on  the  outside  of 
the  leg,  and  sometimes  on  the  hind  leg.  Sometimes  they 
are  the  cause  of  frequent  lameness,  though  not  in  every  in- 
stance. But  it  is  a  lameness  peculiar  to  itself.  Not  con- 
tinuous. Intermittent  character.  More  noticeable  when  the 
animal  is  warm  than  when  he  is  cool.  If  near  the  knee  joint  it 
will  become  aggravated  when  the  animal  is  put  to  work.  Splints 
are  the  result  of  blows,  bruises  or  external  hurts,  and  from  over- 
straining or  excess  of  labor  in  young  animals,  and  are  of  the 
most  common  occurrence.  It  is  rarely,  in  large  cities,  that  a 
horse  cannot  exhibit  one  or  more  specimens  of  some  f6rm  of 
splints. 

Treatment  should  be  mild  and  attentive.     Remove  the  inflam- 
.  mation  by  hot  applications,  cold  water  bandages  at  night  and  my 
Oster-Cocus    Liniment    once   or   twice   during   the    day,   repeating 
until  relieved. 

In  neglected  or  peculiar  cases  causing  lameness,  the  above  treatment,  and 
one  or  two  applications  of  my  Absorbent. 

Hip  Lameness. —  Seldom  shows  external  swelling.  By  standing  imme- 
diately behind  him,  while  he  stands  square  on  his  hind  legs,  comparing  the 
two  hips  together,  the  enlargement  may  be  detected.  In  stepping  the  lame 
leg  is  not  brought  as  far  forward  as  the  other ;  he  drops  on  that  quarter. 

Sometimes  the  tendons  of  the  gluteus  maximus  are  the  seat  of  lameness. 
If  so,  we  will  find  heat,  swelling,  and  tenderness  to  pressure.  When  in  stable 
he  will  stand  square,  when  moving,  he  drags  along  the  lame  side. 

Treatment. — Remove  the  inflammation  by  hot  applications  or  fomentations. 
My  Liniment  Powder  is  excellent  for  this  work.  When  you  have  done  this, 
apply  freely  my  Absorbent  Blister,  repeating  several  times. 

Weak  Back. —  Give  one  grain  of  strychnine  morning  and  night ;  of  pine 
tar  and  pitch  take  equal  parts  (heat  warm  enough  to  spread),  make  a  paste

food,  adding  twice  daily  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders. 

FOR  FAMILY  USE 

Unequaled  for  all  Strains,  Sprains,  Lame  Back,  Pain  in  Chest  or  Abdo- 
men, Inflammation,  Chilblains,  Stiff  Joints,  Rheumatism,  Neuralgia,  Ivy 
Poison,  Sore  Throat,  Stings,  Mosquito  or  Insect  Bites,  etc. 

Dr.  Daniels'  Liniment  is  made  expressly  for  a  Liniment, and  is  a  Liniment. 
It  is  not  made  for  colic,  fever,  colds,  or  any  other  internal  use.  It  is 
not  a  cure-all,  —  just  a  Liniment.  It  ought  to  seem  reasonable  to  any 
one  that  a  Liniment,  made  expressly  for  a  Liniment,  and  nothing  else, 
ought  to  be  better  for  all  external  uses  and  to  use  as  a  Liniment  than  the 
kinds  made  to  drink  or  take  as  medicines,  or  even  the  kind  to  use  as  perfumery. 
I  do  not  claim  OSTER-COCUS  to  be  of  value  except  as  a  Liniment  and 
for  external  use.  For  this  purpose  and  as  a  Liniment  no  so-called  Lini- 
ment on  earth  is  equal  to  OSTER-COCUS.  One  trial  will  convince  the 
most  skeptical  of  the  truth  of  this  statement. 

Remember  whenever  you  want  a  liniment  to  use  Daniels'  (Oster-Cocus) 
Liniment — the  best  and  safest.  It  will  do  the  work  while  asleep  or  awake. 

For  Strains  and  Sprains. — First  bathe  in  hot  water  when  convenient,  then 
apply  Oster-Cocus  freely,  but  do  not  bandage  while  inflammation  lasts. 
When  you  are  able  to  walk  about,  after  having  a  sprained  ankle,  use  the 
Oster-Cocus  morning  and  night  for  a  few  days.  It  will  strengthen  the 
ankle  and  obviate  all  tendency  to  weak  joints.  If  you  wish  most  remark- 
able results  just  use  my  Liniment  Powder  in  the  hot  water  (tablespoonful 
to  quart  of  water),  soak  and  keep  the  water  hot;  the  inflammation  will 
be  removed,  then  use  the  Oster-Cocus,  and  tell  your  friends  the  result. 

Rheumatism  (Sciatica).— Apply  freely  Oster-Cocus.  Rub  briskly  and 
bandage  with  flannel  wet  with  Oster-Cocus;  a  dry  cloth  over  that;  keep 
the  bandage  on  as  long  as  oossitte.    Repeat  at  intervals  until  relieved. 

Rheumatism  (Inflammatory).— Bathe  for  twenty  minutes  in  hot  water, 
then  apply  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  freely;  do  not  rub  hard.  Use  every 
hour  on  the  inflammed  parts  till  relieved;    do  not  bandage. 

Neuralgia.— Bathe  for  twenty  minutes  in  hot  water.  Rub  briskly  the  sore 
place  with  Oster-Cocus,  holding  on  a  cloth  saturated  with  Oster-Cocus  for 
a  few  minutes.     Do  not  bandage,  but  repeat  until  relieved. 

In  Rheumatism  and  Neuralgia  many  persons  have  serious  attacks,  often 
assuming  chronic  form  or  state.  To  all  such  I  can  recommend  my  Liniment 
Powder  and  Oster-Cocus,  used  in  conjunction;  hundreds  of  cases  given 
up  as  incurable  yield  to  the  wonderful  treatment,  and  get  the  relief  and 
comfort  sought.  If  you  are  troubled  with  either  Rheumat;sm  or  Neuralgia 
and  cannot  get  relief,  get  a  box  of  my  Liniment  Powder,  50  cents,  and  a 
bottle  of  Oster-Cocus.  Put  into  a  vessel  one  tablespoonful  of  the  powder  to 
quart  of  hot  water.  Keep  the  water  as  hot  as  you  can  possibly  bear  it,  soak 
the  affected  part  for  half  hour  or  even  more,  wipe  dry  and  rub  on  a  little 
Osret-Cocus — this  later  two  or  three  times  to  one  soaking — if  the  trouble  is 
located  so  it  cannot  be  submerged  in  a  soaking,  then  wring  out  hot  cloths, 
apply  them  to  the  lame  and  aching  part,  one  after  the  other  in  quick  suc-

cession  for  half  hour  or  more.  When  you  apply  the  Oster-Cocus  as  before 
mentioned,  repeating  this  treatment  will  give  you  what  you  seek — or  money 
back. 

Sore  Throat. — Wet  a  soft  cloth  with  Oster-Cocus  and  bind  around  the 
throat,  covering  with  dry  flannel.  Allow  to  remain  as  long  as  can  be  borne. 
This  will  cure  sore  throat  in  a  night.    Remove  the  bandage  before  it  blisters. 

Sore  Feet  that  become  blistered  and  sore  from  constant  standing  or  mov- 
ing should  be  treated  as  follows  :  On  retiring  bathe  the  feet  in  solution  of 
Carbo-Negus  (teaspoDnful  to  a  quart  of  water),  dr^  thoroughly  and  apply 
my  Oster-Cocus,  but  do  not  rub  too  hard.  Any  one 'who  suffers  with  sore 
feet  will  be  astonished. 

Stiff  Joints  and  Deep-Seated  Lameness. — Bathe  for  twenty  minutes  in  hot 
water,  hot  as  you  can  bear  it,  then  rub  on  freely  Oster-Cocus  Liniment ; 
bandage  with  a  cloth  wet  in  Oster-Cocus,  put  a  dry  one  over  that,  and  re- 
move the  bandage  if  it  becomes  too  hot  for  comfort. 

Lame  Back,  Pains  in  Chest  or  Abdomen. — Bathe  the  sore  spot  in  hot  Lini- 
ment Powder;  apply  Oster-Cocus  freely  to  the  affected  parts,  covering  with 
cloths  as  long  as  can  be  borne.  Do  not  use  the  liniment  where  there  is 
hair,  as  it  will  blister. 

Chilblains. — Bathe  in  Linimert  Powder,  hot  as  you  can  stand,  twenty 
minutes.  Apply  freely  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  like  a  wash.  They  will  dis- 
appear like  magic  with  one  or  two  applications. 

Ivy  Poison. — Wash  in  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (one  teaspoonful  to  quart 
of  water),  then  appiy  Oster-Cocus  frequently  and  freely;  the  poison  and 
itching  will  disappear  at  once.     It  is  used  successfully  without  Carbo-Negus. 

Mosquito  and  Insect  Bites,  etc. — For  these  it  is  invaluable.  As  soon  as 
possible  after  bite  apply  freely  Oster-Cocus.  .  Sure  to  relieve.  If  you  put  a 
little  Oster-Cocus  on  your  hands  and  face  when  troubled  by  mosquitoes  they 
will  not  bite,  it  keeps  them  away;  hunters  and  fishermen  use  it  for  this  pur- 
pose. 

Toothache. — With  a  feather,  or  similar  help,  drop  two  or  three  drops  of 
Oster-Cocus  on  the  gum  around  the  tooth,  and  hold  a  cloth  to  the  face 
saturated  with  Oster-Cocus. 

Bicycle  Riders  will  find  this  Liniment  invaluable;  the  greatest  thing  on 
earth  for  soreness  and  strains. 

Athletes  can  find  nothing  equal  to  Oster-Cocus  for  strengthening  the 
muscles,  nerves  and  cords  after  all  exertions  or  exercise.  One  rub-down 
with  this  Liniment  will  prove  its  worth  to  you.  Oster-Cocus  is  compounded 
upon  scientific  principles,  and  is  not  a  "patent"  remedy. 

Directions  for  General  Use  of  Dr.  Daniels'  Oster= 
Cocus  Oil  or  Bone,  Nerve  and  Muscle  Liniment 

FOR  FAMILY  USE 

Rub  the  sore  or  painful  part  smartly  from  five  to  ten  minutes  after  apply- 
ing the  Oil ;  in  some  cases  wet  a  piece  of  flannel  thoroughly  with  it,  and 
bind  it  tightly  over  the  part  for,  say,  ten  to  thirty  minutes,  or  as  long  as 
can  be  borne.  If  not  much  improved  in  an  hour  repeat  the  above  treat- 
ment.

HOOF    DRESSING    AND    FOOD 


For  Corns,  Quarter  Cracks,  Cracked  Hoof,  Brittle,  Tender,  Dry  or  Contracted  Feet 


A  PERFECT  HOOF  FOOD 

A  Dressing  that  Polishes  and  Preserves.  For  City  Horses— or  those  used  on 
hard  paved  streets,  this  hoof  food  is  a  wonder.  For  carriage  horses  it's  the  cleanest 
and  best  dressing  made. 

The  horse's  feet  require  constant 
care.  More  than  one-half  the  ills 
befalling  his  feet  arise  from  neglect  or 
lack  of  care.  Shod  artificially,  worked  on 
artificial  roads,  standing  on  artificial  floors, 
all  of  which  are  injurious  conditions  for 
the  horse's  feet  to  contend  against,  thus 
demanding  of  caretakers  or  owners  an 
extra  amount  of  consideration  to  preserve 
the  feet,  which  few  horses  get.  "No  foot, 
no  horse.''  Neglected,  the  hoof  becomes 
hard,  brittle  and  shelly,  resulting  in  con- 
traction, cracked  hoof,  etc. ;  or  frog  be- 
comes soft,  heated,  decomposed,  emits 
foul  odors,  constituting  thrush,  canker, 
greased  heel,  etc.  Shoes  remain  on  the 
feet  until  worn  out,  or  come  off  by  acci- 
dent, a  menace  to  the  horse's  usefulness. 
The  shoes  should  be  removed  every  three 
weeks  and  the  sole  and  crust  trimmed  out. 

Hoof  Suggestions.— ist.  Always  look  at 
the  feet  with  care  each  day  to  see  that  they 
are  in  good  condition. 

2d.  Note  if  the  shoes  are  all  right,  and 
remember  that  it  is  not  always  economy 
to  wear  the  shoes  forever;  three  or  four 
weeks'  wear  is  cheaper  in  the  end.

SOriE  DIET  RECEIPTS 

Linseed  Tea:  Bruised  linseed,  4  to  6  ounces,  1  gallon  boiling  water,  simmer 
for  two  hours,  strain,  add  a  little  molasses. 

Linseed  Mash :  Linseed,  2  quarts,  a  teacupful  of  sugar,  6  quarts  boning 
water,  simmer  slow  from  4  to  5  hours. 

Barley  Water:  Barley,  1  pound,  2  gallons  water,  boil  down  to  6  quarts, 
strain,  add  teacup  of  molasses. 

Bran  Mashes  :  Half-peck  bran,  enough  boiling  water  to  scald  it  thoroughly, 
stir  well  and  give  warm.     Always  give  mashes  from  a  clean  pail. 

HOW  TO  MAKE  A  POULTICE 

Poultices  are  of  the  greatest  value  in  some  cases,  in  fact  indispensable.  A 
first-class  poultice  is  made  by  pouring  boiling  water  into  bran.  All  the  better 
if  one-fourth  as  much  linseed  meal  has  been  put  into  the  bran.  Pour  the 
water  on  slowly,  stirring  the  bran,  and  let  it  stand  and  cook  a  few  minutes, 
and  put  it  on  as  hot  as  can  be  borne.  Always  make  enough.  Use  for  ordi- 
nary poultice  six  or  eight  quarts  of  bran  and  two  quarts  of  linseed.  Get  it 
just  thick  enough  to  spread  nicely  without  any  lumps.  If  used  before  it  is 
well  cooked  it  is  liable  to  grow  dry  and  become  useless.  Boiled  turnips  can 
be  substituted  for  linseed  if  more  convenient.  Always  use  a  sufficient'  quan- 
tity of  poultice,  and  have  it  soft  and  moist.  Flaxseed  meal  and  powdered 
slippery  elm  in  equal  portions  make  an  excellent  poultice,  and  a  few  drops 
of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus  is  a  disinfectant  and  purifier  which  should  be  added. 

HOW  TO  MEASURE  DOSES  OF  HEDICINES 

IN  DOMESTIC  UTENSILS 

For  nearly  all  common  use,  fluids  may  be  measured  in  domestic  utensils  to 
correspond  to  these  tables  : 

60  drops  equal  1  teaspoonful  or  1  drachm.    30  drops  half  teaspoonful. 
4  teaspoonfuls  equal  1  tablespoonful  or  one-half  ounce. 
2  tablespoonfuls  equal   1  ounce. 
1   wineglassful  equal  2  ounces. 
1  teacupful  equal  4  ounces. 
1  tumblerful  equal  y2  pint. 
A  familiar  manner  of  estimating  dry  measure  is : 

A  handful  of  linseed,  aniseed,  etc.,  equal  2  ounces. 
A  handful  of  dried  leaves  equal  1   ounce. 
As  large  as  a  hen's  egg  equal  2  ounces. 
Tables  of  interest  in  weights  and  measures : 

Apothecaries.  Wine. 

60  grains  equal  1  drachm-  60  drops  equal  1  drachm. 

8  drachms  equal  1  ounce.  8  drachms  equal  1  ounce. 

16  ounces  equal  1  pound.  16  ounces  equal  1  pint. 

8  pints  equal  1  gallon.

A  Healthy  Eye 


Dg^»0Danie^ls 

ANIMAL 

EYEWASH 
Diseases  of  the  Eye 


Can  hardly  be  over-estimated  as  re- 
lated to  the  comfort  and  value  of  the 
horse.  A  blind  horse  is  dangerous, 
impaired  vision  is  quite  as  bad,  while 
from  a  point  of  beauty  a  sound  eye 
adds  much  to  the  animal's  value. 

A  full  description  of  the  eye  is  not 
possible  in  these  few  pages,  a  few  lines, 
however,   relating  thereto   may  be  considered  essential. 

The  horse's  eye  is  spheroidal,  flattened  in  the  rear, 
quite  four-fifths  of  its  posterior  enclosed  by  an  opaque 
fibrous    membrane,    the    interior    of    which    consists    of    a 

more  delicate  membrane,  composed  in  the  main  of  blood  vessels  and  cells, 

which  in  turn  is  lined  by  the   still  more  delicate,  sensitive  nerves  of  sight ; 

the  outside  fifth  of  the  eye  bulges  forward,  its  walls  having  when  in  health 

a  perfectly  translucent  appearance  or  coat. 

The  interior  of  the  eye  has  three  .translu- 
cent media  for  the  refraction  of  rays  of 
light;  the  anterior  one  is  liquid,  the  pos- 
teria  is  semi-solid  and  the  other,  or  inter- 
mediate, is  solid.  The  iris,  or  curtain,  be- 
sides its  blood  vessels  and  pigment,  has  two 
sets  of  muscular  fibres,  one  .set  radiating 
from  the  margin  of  the  pupil  to  the  outer 
border  of  the  curtain  at  its  connection  with 
the  sclerotic  and  choroid,  while  the  second 
encircles  the  pupil  like  a  ring.  The  form  of 
the  pupil  is  ovoid,  the  longest  diameter  running  from  side  to  side,  the  up- 
per border  being  fringed  with  several  small  black  bodies  slightly  projecting 
forward  and  in  a  way  serving  as  eyebrows.  These  formations  are  often  mis- 
taken for  disease  and  injury.  Of  course  they  may  become  diseased,  but 
while  they  and  the  iris  retain  a  clear,  dark  appearance,  free  from  yellow  or 
brown  tints,  they  are  said  to  be  healthy. 

A  point  peculiar  to  the  appearance  of  the  horse's  eye  is  that  in  darkness 
a  bright  bluish  tinge  is  reflected  from  the  widely  dilated  pupil. 

The  eye  has  seven  distinct  muscles.     Four  straight  muscles  pass  from  the 
depth  of  the  orbit  forward  on  the  upper,  lower,  inner  and  outer  sides  of  the 


Section  of  the  Horse's  Eye

eyeball j  these  serve  to  turn  the  eyes  up,  down,  or  to  the  right  or  left,  if  a1' 
used  together  their  tendency  is  to  draw  the  eyeball  'into  its  socket.  The  re- 
tractor muscle  is  divided  into  four  slips,  repeating  the  motions  as  before 
indicated  but  on  a  smaller  scale,  while  the  two  other  muscles  turn  the 
eye  upon  its  axis,  the  upper  one  turning  its  outer  surface  upward  or  inward, 
the  lower  one  turning  the  reverse. 

The  haw  is  of  great  assistance  in  removing  foreign  objects  from  the  eye 
of  the  horse.  In  the  ordinary  healthy  state  of  the  eye,  this  cartilage  ap- 
pears as  a  thin  fold  of  membrane.  At  the  iner  angle  of  the  eye,  in  inflam- 
mation of  the  eye,  this  cartilage  is  pushed  forward  to  such  an  extent  that 
ignorant  persons  have  cut  off  this  useful  and  important  appendage,  resulting 
in  permanent  injury  to  the  eye.  Just  because  you  think  the  haw  is  swollen 
and  projected  over  a  part  or  even  the  whole  of  the  eyeball,  it  is  no  sign  of 
disease,  though  it  may  be  evidence  of  pain  and  trouble  to  some  other  part 
of  the  eye,  but  don't  cut  it  off. 

To  examine  the  eye,  to  a  certain  extent,  the  mucous  membrane  lining  the 
eyelids  may  be  exposed  by  parting  the  lids  with  the  thumb  and  finger 
pressed  lightly  upon  the  upper  and  lower  lids  respectively.  If  too  much 
pressure  it  will  throw  the  haw  over  a  portion  of  the  lower  part  of  the  eye, 
but  care  will  enable  you  to  overcome  this.  You  can  further  look  into  the 
eye  by  turning  the  upper  lid  over  the  finger  tip  or  a  flat  probe  or  similar 
object  placed  flat  against  the  middle  of  the  lid.  Don't  try  to  examine  out 
ol  doors  or  in  sunshine.  Have  the  light  cut  off  from  above,  get  ail  the 
light  from  the  front  and  side,  stand  in  front  where  you  can  get  the  best 
observation,  or  put  the  horse  in  a  dark  room  and  look  at  the  eye  by  artifi- 
cial light. 


Diseases  of  the  Eyelids 

_  Congenital  disorders  of  the  lids,  such  as  division  of  the  eyelids  in  two. 
similar  to  harelip,  abnormally  small  openings  between  the  lids,  closing  of 
the  lids  by  adhesion.  A  surgeon  is  desirable  when  possible  to  obtain  in 
such  cases. 

Drooping  Eyelids  is  sometimes  only  a  symptom  of  paralysis  of  one-half 
of  the  face.  If  so,  the  nostrils,  lips  and  ears,  perhaps  one-half  of  the 
tongue  may  be  affected;  the  food  will  be  taken  entirely  by  the  teeth  as  the 
lips  have  lost  their  use.  This  form  of  paralysis  is  often  the  result  of  in- 
jury, a  poke  to  the  nerve  which  passes  over  the  back  of  the  lower  jaw. 
In  some  cases  the  paralysis  is  confined  to  the  lid,  caused  by  an  injury  to  the 
muscles  which  raise  it.  Sometimes  this  condition  is  caused  by  spasms  to 
the  muscles  which  close  the  lid,  or  to  inflammation  of  the  upper  lid. 

Treatment. — If  due  to  the  poke,  remove  the  inflammation  by  a  sponge 
wet  in  Daniels'  Witch  Hazel,  kept  in  place  beneath  the  ear  and  held  in 
place  with  a  bandage. 

When  all  inflammation  has  been  removed  apply  a  blister  to  the  same 
place  beneath  the  ear,  or  applications  of  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  rubbed 

84 


i^Yte  A*  ODanieiIs'  Mexhcines"^^ 


well  into  the  skin  to  stimulate  the  surface  in  the  immediate  vicinity.    Months 
may  be  required  to  effect  a  cure. 

In  paralysis  from  blows  above  the   eye  the  same  treatment  may  be   used 
to  that  part. 

Thickening  of  the  Lid  may  be  treated  by  painting  the  same  with  tincture 
of  iodine. 

Inflammation  of  the  Eyelids  is  often  cairsed  by  exposure  to  draughts  of 
cold    air,    rain    or   snowstorms,    bites    of    insects,    flies    or    snakes,    pricks    of 
thorns,  blows  from  whip  or  club,  accidental  bruises  by  bits  of  dust,  chaff, 
sand,  grass  seeds,  etc.,  or  by  the  fumes  of  chemicals,  ammonia  from  manure 
(keep   the   stable   clean),   smoke,   etc.,   or  by   infection.     Inflammation   from 
whatever  cause   should    have  prompt  attention;    remove   the   cause;    wet  a 
soft  cloth  with  a  solution  of  Daniels'   Eye  Wash    (one 
tablespoonful  to  a  cup  of  water,  distilled  or  boiled ;    rain 
water  when  possible),  and  place  over  the  eye,  binding  it 
on  when  in  the  stable,  and  tying  it  to  the  headstall  of 
|  the  bridle  from  the  two  sides,   and  drop   four  drops  of 
|  the  Eye  Wash  into  the  eye,  with  a  feather  or  dropper, 
three   times    daily.      Give   laxative   foods    (bran    mashes, 
carrots,   beets,   potatoes,   etc.,   cut   up    small),   steam   the 
hay,   add   one    of   my   Renovator    Powders    to    the    feed

Stye  forms  a  round  swelling  near  the  edges  of  the  lid;    poul- 
tice  with'  Chamomile   Flowers,   adding  a    few    drops  of    Carbo- 
Negus    when   applying,  put   in   a   thin   muslin   bag  and  bind  on 
the  eye. 

Eyelashes  sometimes  turn  so  as  to  irritate  the  eye.  If  one 
or  two  l%irs  offend,  cut  them  off  with  scissors  close  to  the  lid 
or  pull  out  by  roots,  drop  into  the  eye  a  few  drops  of  the  Eye 
Wash  two  or  three  times  a  day.  If  the  lashes  offending  are 
numerous  a  surgeon  should  operate  on  the  lid. 

Warts  and  Tumors  on  the  eyelids ;  if  small,  snip  off  with 
scissors  or  tie  a  stout  thread  around  them  close  up  to  the  skin 
and  they  will  soon  drop  off.  Sometimes  it  is  well  to  touch 
them  with  sulphate  of  copper  daily  after  cutting  them  off. 

Some  forms  of  tumors  require  the  knife  for  removal  arid  this  should  be 
done  by  a  competent  surgeon. 
Watering  Eyes  are  a   symptom  of  external  inflammation  of  the   eye.      It 
may,    however,    be    caused   by    disease    of   the    lachrymal 
apparatus  interfering  with  the  progress   of  the  tears  to 
the  nose.     In  all  cases  examine  the  orifice  of  the  lachry- 
mal duct  on  the  floor  of  the  nasal  chamber  close  to  the 
anterior   outlet ;     this   will  be   sometimes    found   blocked 
by  a ,  portion   of  matter,   which,   when   removed,    allows 
the  tears   to  escape.      Sponge   out   the   nose   with   warm 
water  and  make  application  of  warm  water  to  the  face. 
Feed  warm  bran  mashes  in  a  nose  bag,  adding  one  of

ing  effect  to  the  muscles  and  act  well  upon  the  system.  Keep  the  eye  moist- 
ened with  my  Eye  Wash,  one  teaspoonful  in  cup  of  water,  and  a  few  drops 
several  times  daily  in  the  eye. 

External  Ophthalmia  or  inflammation  of  the  outer  parts 
of  the  eye,  caused  mainly  by  blows  from  whip,  clubs,  twigs, 
etc.,  seeds,  chaff,  dust,  sand,  lime,  wounds,  etc.  Exposed 
to  extreme  dry  air,  smoke,  ammonia  (from  stable),  win- 
dows in  front  of  stall  or  very  dark  stalls,  exposure  to  cold, 
severe  snow  and  rain  storms,  etc. 

Symptoms  of  Ophthalmia  are  watering  of  the  eye, 
swollen  lids,  redness  of  the  mucous  membranes  which  may 
show  a  pinkish,  bluish  color,  or  it  may  be  a  deep,  dark  red 
with  a  bluish  opacity  of  the  cornea,  which  is  usually  clear 
and  translucent. 

Remove  the  cause  at  once,  whatever  that  may  be.  Bathe  the  eye  with 
warm  water  and  Daniels'  Eye  Wash  (one  tablespoonful  of  wash  to  cup  of 
warm  water).  Allow  this  solution  to  flow  from  an  inverted  glass  over  the 
eye;  this  will  cleanse  and  often  remove  the  irritant.  Put  a  few  drops  of 
the  Eye  Wash  into  the  eye  several  times  daily,  keep  the  eye  and  lids  moist- 
ened by  applying  a  soft  cloth  wet  with  the  solution  of  Eye  Wash  and 
water  as  above.  Feed  bran  mashes  and  soft  food,  adding  one  of  Daniels' 
Renovator  Powders  daily  to  the  food— sometimes  a  solution  of  seven 
grains  of  nitrate  of  silver  to  a  quart  of  distilled  water  may  be  used  as  an 
assistant  in  applications  to  the  eye,  and  it  is  frequently  found  necessary 
to  apply  a  small  blister  on  the  side  of  the  face  three  inches  below  the  eye, 
for  one  night,  washing  it  off  next  morning,  then  following  directions  as 
above. 

White  Specks  resulting  from  ophthalmia  may  be  removed  by  keeping  the 
eye  moistened  with  solution  of  warm  water  and  Daniels'  Eye  Wash  (one 
teaspoonful  to  cup  of  water)  and  touching  the  eye  with  a  soft  feather 
dipped  in  the  Eye  Wash  two  or  three  times  daily,  and  a  solution  of  three 
grains  of  nitrate  of  silver  to  one  ounce  of  distilled  water,  used  with  a 
soft  feather  as  above  indicated,  may  be  of  assistance ;  old  and  thick  scars 
are  not  easily  removed. 

Moonblindness  or  recurrent  ophthalmia  frequently  ends  in  blindness: 
damp  conditions  or  surroundings  seem  the  prevailing  cause,  damp  and 
marshy  grounds,*  overflowed  river  bottoms,  sea  and  lake  shores  which  are 
submerged  and  exposed  at  intervals,  etc.  Heredity  is  a  potent  cause; 
many  other  reasons  are  obviously  responsible  for  this  trouble,  symptoms  of 
which  are  marked  by  fever,  lack  of  vigor  and  life  or  energy.  A  character- 
istic of  the  disease  is  its  recurrence  time  after  time  in  the  same  eye  until 
blindness  results.  The  attacks  may  follow  at  intervals 
of  a  month  or  a  week  or  two.  Prevention  is  the  main 
consideration,  which  demands  careful  breeding,  housing, 
feeding  and  general  management.  Treatment  cannot 
be  considered  satisfactory  but  is  much  the  same  as  in 
ophthalmia.  Don't  knock  out  the  wolf  teeth  or  cut  off 
the  haw.  These  customs  are  barbarous  and  useless. 
Cataract. — Don't  try  to  cure,  it  is  quite  impossible.

Parasites  often  afflict  the  eye;  one,  sometimes  a  small  white  worm,  in- 
habits the  lachrymal  duct,  the  under  side  of  eyelids  and  the  haw.  Remove 
them  as  soon  as  discovered  with  forceps,  and  treat  as  for  inflammation, 
keeping  the  eye  moist  and  using  Daniels'  Eye  Wash,  a  few  drops  several 
times  -daily  in  the  eye.  There  is  a  second  silver-white  appearing  worm, 
sometimes  two  inches  long,  which  imbeds  itself  in  the  aqueous  humor.  It 
is  often  found  in  other  internal  cavities  of  the  horse,  but  when  in  the  eye 
a  surgeon  should  remove,  as  it  is  a  delicate  operation. 

Palsy  of  the  Nerve  of  Sight  results  from  tumors  or  some  disease  of  the 
brain  or  optic  nerves,  injury,  pressure  from  dropsical,  inflammatory  con- 
ditions, gestations,  etc. 

Treatment  is  of  use  only  when  the  disease  arises  from  some  removable 
cause,  like  brain,  stomach  or  womb  troubles;  when  recovery  fails  to 
accompany  the  termination  of  any  of  these  conditions,  blister  just  behind 
the  ear,  give  four  to  six  30-drop  doses  of  Daniels'  No.  1  Colic  Cure  at 
intervals  of  ten  minutes,  bathe  the  eye  and  keep  moist  with  solution  Dan- 
iels' Eye  Wash. 

Inflammation  of  the  Eye  in  general  and  under  all  circumstances  can  be 
greatly  relieved  and  most  cases  cured  by  keeping  the  eyelids  moistened 
with  a  solution  of  Eye  Wash  and  warm  water  (one  teaspoonful  of  the  Wash 
1o  cup  of  water),  and  by  frequently  dropping  a  few  drops  of  the  Wash  into 
the  eye  several  times  daily.  This  can  be  done  with  a  soft  feather  or  ordi- 
nary medicine  dropper. 

Remember,  in  treating  diseases  of  the  eye  the  same  natural  conditions 
exist  which  we  find  in  nearly  all  other  diseases — the  system  is  down — and 
'"condition"  must  be  restored  before  the  particular  disease  which  we  notice 
can  be  cured — if  the  horse  was  always  kept  in  proper  condition,  we  should 
not  see  so  many  specific  weaknesses  which  we  call  disease.  Hence,  use 
Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  in  the  feed ;  they  will  keep  the  horse  in  prime 
condition  and  thus  prevent  many  an  outbreak,  and  when  treating  for  eye 
troubles,  as  I  may  say  of  any  other  trouble,  one  dollar  invested  in  Daniels' 
Renovator  Powders  and  given  to  the  horse  will  bring  to  you  surprising 
results.

LARGEST  BOX  BEST  CURE 

Contains  No  Poison.     You  Can  Therefore 
Work  the  Horse  or  Not  as  Con- 
venience Dictates 
The   original,  the   kind   they  imitate,  and 
the  kind  that  always  cures ;  the  kind  that 
cures    whether    you    work    the    horse    or 
not.     Any  harness  or  saddle  gall   can  be 
cured    with    my    Gall    Cura.        Remember 
this    Statement.      Money    is    refunded    if 
it  fails,  so  you  take  no  risk  with  Daniels'.     Good  for  all  sores.     Stops  itching 
on  swine.     Sheep  ointment  for  sore  heads.  Cures  scratches  on  horses.  Handy 
to  have,  inexpensive,  will  retain  its  goodness  for  years.     Contains  no  poison. 

Directions  for  Use 

Harness  or  Saddle  Galls. — For  fresh  sores  carefully  cover  each  sore  spot 
that  comes  under  the  harness  with  this  salve  every  time  before  putting  on 
the  harness.     Heals  such  places  quickly.     Work  the  horse  or  not. 

Notice. — -If  you  have  a  malignant  case  or  have  tried  imitations  or  other  so- 
called  cures  without  success,  follow  this  treatment  and  cure  it  every  time. 
Wash  with  a  solution  of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus  to  destroy  germs  or  poison. 
Wet  the  sore  with  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  when  unharnessed 
and  cover  the  sore  well  with  Daniels'  Gall-Cura  while  harnessed,  and  work- 
ing.    Repeat  for  a  few  days  and  you  can  cure  any  gall  ever  made. 

Sometimes  sores  do  not  yield  to  external  treatment,  or  quickly  break  out 
again;  this  is  because  of  poor  blood  and  run-down  condition.  Whenever 
you  have  trouble  in  healing  any  sore,  give  a  few  doses  of  my  Renovator 
Powder  for  the  blood. 

Never  Give  Up;  Daniels'  Will  Cure  If  Others  Fail 

Sores  not  covered  by  the  harness,  apply  once  or  twice  each  day,  rubbing 
the  salve  in  well  with  the  fingers. 

Scratches. — Use  no  soap;  clean  out  mud  and  dirt  with  a  soft  brush,  and 
rub  in  this  salve  well  with  the  hands  twiVp  a  day. 

Chaps,  Speedy  Cuts  and  Abrasion  (Skin  off,).— Rub  on  Gall-Cura;  it 
heals  quickly.

HELP  IN  CASE  OF  ACCIDENTS 

Drowning. —  I.  Loosen  clothing,  if  any.  2.  Empty  lungs  of  water  by  lay- 
ing body  on  its  stomach  and  lifting  it  by  the  middle  so  that  the  head  hangs 
down.  Jerk  the  body  a  few  times.  3.  Pull  tongue  forward,  tying  with  hand- 
kerchief, or  pin  with  string  if  necessary.  4.  Imitate  motions  of  respiration 
by  alternately  compressing  and  expanding  the  lower  ribs,  about  twenty  times 
a  minute.  Alternately  raising  and  lowering  the  arms  from  the  side  up  above 
the  head  will  stimulate  the  action  of  the  lungs.  Let  it  be  done  gently  but 
persistently.  5.  Apply  warmth  and  friction  to  extremities.  6.  By  holding  the 
tongue  forward,  closing  the  nostrils,  and  pressing  the  "Adam's  Apple"  back, 
so  as  to  close  entrance  to  stomach,  direct  inflation  can  be  tried.  Take  a  deep 
breath  and  breathe  it  forcibly  into  the  mouth  of  the  patient,  compress  the 
chest  to  expel  the  air  and  repeat  the  operation.  7.  Don't  give  up!  People 
have  been  saved  after  hours  of  patient,  vigorous  effort.  8.  When  breathing 
begins,  get  patient  into  warm  bed,  give  warm  drinks,  or  spirits  in  teaspoon- 
fuls,  fresh  air  and  quiet. 

Burns  and  Scalds. — Apply  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  Liniment  freely. 

Lightning. — Dash  cold  water  over  a  person  struck. 

Sunstroke. — Loosen  clothing.  Get  patient  into  shade,  and  apply  ice  cold 
water  to  head. 

Mad  Dog  or  Snake  Bite. — Tie  cord  tight  above  the  wound,  suck  the 
blood  and  cauterize  with  caustic  or  white  iron  at  once,  or  cut  out  adjoining 
parts  with  sharp  knife,  cleansing  with  Carbo-Negus.  Heal  with  Wonder 
Worker  Liniment. 

Venomous  Insect  Stings,  etc. —  Apply  Carbo-Negus  and  Oster-Cocus 
Liniment. 

Fainting. — Place  flat  on  back;  allow  fresh  air,  and  sprinkle  the  face  with 
cold  water. 

Tests  of  Death. — -Hold  mirror  to  mouth.  If  living,  moisture  will  gather. 
Push  pin  into  flesh.     If  dead  the  hole  will  remain,  if  alive,  will  close  up. 

Cinders  in  the  Eye. — Roll  soft  paper  up  like  a  lamp  lighter  and  wet  the 
tip  to  remove,  or  use  a  medicine  dropper  to  draw  it  out.     Rub  the  other  eye. 

Fire  in  a  Building. — Crawl  on  the  floor.  The  clearest  air  is  the  lowest 
in  the  room.  Cover  head  with  a  woolen  wrap,  wet  if  possible.  Don't  get 
excited. 

Fire  in  Kerosene.— Don't  use  water,  it  will  spread  the  flames.  Dirt,  sand 
or  flour  is  the  best  extinguisher ;  or  smother  with  woolen  rug  or  carpet. 

Suffocation  from  inhaling  Burning-Gas. — Get  into  the  fresh  air  as  soon 
as  possible  and  lie  down.  Keep  warm.  Take  ammonia, — twenty  drops  to  a 
tumbler  of  water,  at  frequent  intervals. 

Fire  in  a  Stable. — Get  the  animals  out  by  throwing  a  blanket  or  cover  over 
their  heads..    They  can  then  be  led  out.

WITCH  HAZEL 


HAMAMEUS 


Dr.  Daniels'  Veterinary  Witch  Hazel  is  the  well-known 
Hamamelis  in  concentrated  form  and  triple  strength. 
Like  all  of  Dr.  Daniels'  remedies  it  is  prepared  to  ob- 
tain the  best  results,  and  not  to  sell,  at  the  cheapest 
price.  It  is  prepared  expressly  for  veterinary  use.  It 
can  be  recommended  for  all  kinds  of  Inflammation, 
Wounds,  Abrasions,  Cuts,  Swellings,  Sprains,  Soreness 
of  Muscles  or  Tendons,  and  for  a  Track  Wash  is  un- 
excelled. Nearly  all  horsemen  use  Witch  Hazel_  in 
some  form  in  solution  with  other  preparation.  Daniels' 
Witch  Hazel  will  be  found  more  effective  because  of  its 
strength  and  medicinal  qualities  than  the  ordinary  mix- 
tures sold  for  Witch  Hazel. 

Daniels'  Veterinary  Witch  Hazel  has  the  endorsement  of  Veterinaries,  Sur- 
geons, Track  Men  and  Stock  Breeders  and  thousands  of  users  all  over  the 
world. 

Directions  for  Inflammation,  Bruises,  Swelling,  Sprains,  Soreness,  etc. : 
Rub  briskly  and  freely  with  my  Veterinary  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  the 
swollen  limbs;  after  rubbing,  bandage  and  saturate  well  the  cloth  with 
the  Extract. 

For  Wounds,  Cuts,  etc.,  bind  a  cloth  saturated  with  the  Extract  of  Witch 
Hazel  about  the  affected  parts,  and  keep  wet. 

Between  Heats  for  Track  Work,  turfmen  will  find  my  Veterinary  Extract 
of  Witch  Hazel  of  great  value;  used  alone  or  in  conjunction  with  any 
other  article  used  for  that  purpose. 

Owners  of  High-Class  and  Track  Horses,  which  they  value  above  the  or- 
dinary, should  use  for  a  wash  after  work  Daniels'  Celebrated  Liniment 
Powder,  two  tablespoonfuls  to  a  quart  of  hot  water,  into  which  pour  1-4 
pint  of  Veterinary  Witch  Hazel ;  keep  the  water  hot  and  soak  the  feet  a 
few  minutes  (from  5  to  10),  then  immediately  plunge  the  foot  into  cold 
water  for  a  second  or  two;  repeat  this  two  or  three  times  when  showing 
signs  of  tenderness,  after  which,  rub  the  cords  and  muscles  with  Witch 
Hazel;  it  will  remove  the  soreness,  stiffness  and  lameness  of  the  muscles, 
keeping  them  flexible,  retaining  the  proper  circulation  and  preventing  the 
horse  from  becoming  sore;  as  a  consequence  he  will  work  the  entire  heats 
for  which  he  is  entered,  free  from  .lameness,  and  be  ready  for  work  the  next 
day. 

Any  horse  owner  or  driver  who  uses  my  Witch  Hazel  with  my  Liniment 
Powder  and  is  not  entirely  satisfied  with  the  results  of  the  working  of 
them,  can  have  his  mojiey  back. 

You  take  no  risk  with  Daniels' ;    every  package  is  warranted.

Dr.  Daniels'  Witch  Hazel  with  Liniment  Powder  for  Track  Use  will  be 
found  superior  to  any  of  the  violent  nostrums  and  so-called  iiniments  now 
in  use. 

Every  Horseman  recognizes  the  immense  amount  of  Sore  and  Tender 
Footed  Horses  on  the  Track,  but  very  few  horsemen  have  stopped  to  think 
cf  the  cause.  From  a  long  and  careful  study  of  the  matter,  I  am  satisfied 
that  one-half,  or  more,  of  the  general  lameness  in  track  horses  results  from 
the  improper  treatment  during  the  race  and  the  use  of  harsh  liniments, 
strong  enough  oftentimes  to  blister  the  fine  sensitive  skin  of  the  thorough- 
bred horse.  When  one  stops  to  think  of  the  excitement  and  heated  con- 
dition of  the  animal  after  working  a  heat,  he  must  realize  the  intense 
strain  of  the  nervous  system,  and  instead  of  adding  fuel  to  the  fire,  means 
for  allaying  this  intense  excitement  should  be  applied.  The  Wash  I  recom- 
mend is  at  once  less  expensive,  absolutely  harmless,  and  positively  more 
effective,  and  will  give  the  Track  Men  better  results  than  any  of  the  other 
articles  on  the  market  to-day  for  this  purpose.  This  is  no  idle  boast,  and 
my  offer  to  refund  the  money  if  my  advice  and  remedies  are  not  satis- 
factory, ought  to  be  sufficient  evidence  of  mv  faith  in  the  treatment. 

For  Leg  Wash.— After  each  heat  take  Dr.  Daniels'  Triple  Extract  of 
Witch  Hazel  (1-4  to  1-2  pint)  to  a  quart  of  hot  water,  into  which  put  two 
lablespoonfuls  of  Daniels'  Celebrated  Liniment  Powder.  When  possible 
allow  the  foot  to  stand  in  a  bucket  of  this  water  deep  enough  to  cover  the 
ankles  and  wash  with  a  sponge,  bathing  and  nibbing  the  ankles  and  legs 
with  this  solution;  then  plunge  into  cold  water  for  a  second  or  two.  Wipe 
and  rub  dry  and  let  the  horse  rest.  Give  thirty  drops  of  my  No.  1  Colic 
Cure  (as  far  back  in  the  mouth  as  possible)  between  each  heat.  Try  this 
on  your  horse.  When  he  quits  you  will  always'  use  them  after  a  trial.  You 
can  use  the  same  wash  for  several  heats  or  during  a  race. 

Give  a  dose  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  in  the  feed  morning  and 
night.    Makes  blood,  acts  on  the  kidneys,  bowels  and  digestive  organs. 

For  Body  Wash. — One-quarter  pint  of  my  Triple  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel 
to  a  quart  of  warm  water,  add  1  teaspoonful  of  my  Liniment  Powder ; 
keep  the  water  hot;  bathe  with  a  sponge;  follow  with  a  dry  cloth  and 
blanket. 

For  Sponging  the  Mouth  and  Nostrils. — One-quarter  pint  of  my  Triple 
Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  to  a  quart  of  warm  water,  sponging  the  mouth  and 
nose  thoroughly. 

YOU  KNOW  WHAT 

That  dull,  lazy,  tired  feeling  is.  Did  you  ever  think  that  when  your  horse 
didn't  drive  or  act  well,  that  he  might  feel  the  same  way,  and  that  he  needed 
a  course  of  treatment?  Dr.  Daniels'  Horse  Renovator  will  in  a  week's  time 
make  the  horse  feel  better,  look  better  and  drive  easier  and  faster. 

Do  you  keep  cows  for  profit?  Give  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders. 

Do  you  want  them  to  give  more  milk?  Give  Daniels' Renovator  Powders. 

Do  you  want  them  to  give  better  milk?    Give  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders. 

Do  you  want  them  healthy  and  strong?    Give  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders. 

Give  them  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders, — and  they  will  be   all  this  for  you.

structions in  so  small  a  book  for  its  everv  use.  The  intelligence^  of  the 
public  in  these  enlightened  times  will  see  from  the  following  directions  its

Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  is  not  only  a  mQSt  wonderful

Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  when  used  as  a  liniment  for  relieving  pain 
has  its  widest  field  of  usefulness.  It  embraces  the  entire  class  of  externa! 
accidents  which  can  be  reached  by  direct  application.  The  repeated  and 
liberal  use  of  it  will  stop  and  retard  inflammatory  process;  will  hasten  a 
subsidence  of  inflammatory  conditions,  and  will  invariably  relieve  the  pain 
resulting   from   inflammation. 

Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  asserts  a  wonderful  control 
over  hemorrhages,  whether  of  an  external  or  internal  nature.  Its  liberal 
use  is  always  beneficial,  and  bleeding,  the  result  of  superficial  injury,  is  easily 
controlled.  Used  internally  as  a  styptic,  it  has  no  equal.  Never  be  afraid 
to  use  Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  internally  or  externa1ly, 
and  oftentimes  the  best  results  are  obtained  from  both  methods  of  adminis- 
tration. 

Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  should  be  in  every  family, 
factory,  hospital,  doctor's  and  dentist's  office.  It  is  handy  for  every  emer- 
gency, which  makes  it  a  most  remarkable  domestic  remedy.  In  diseases 
and  affections  of  the  skin  and  nearby  tissues,  in  which  the  principal  element 
is  pain,  Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  is  particularly  use- 
ful because  of  its  anodyne  property. 

For  Abscess. — In  any  portion  of  the  body  where  there  is  great  pain  and 
inflammation,  hot  applications  of  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel 
will  be  found  very  beneficial,  and  will  relieve  much  suffering  previous  to 
the  expulsion  of  the  pus,  and  used  afterwards  the  sore  will  very  quickly 
heal. 

For  Malignant  Pustules  and  Boils. — At  the  beginning  saturate  a  piece  of 
woolen  cloth  with  hot  Witch  Hazel,  bandaging  the  affected  parts ;  keep  hot 
and  wet;  in  seventy-five  cases  out  of  a  hundred  the  inflammation  will  be 
dispersed.  If,  however,  the  boil  discharges,  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch 
Hazel  should  be  applied  freely,  and  the  healing  will  be  hastened. 

For  Bruises,  Lameness,  Wounds  and  Rheumatism. — Bathe  the  injured  parts 
with  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel ;  where  possible,  bandage,  and  keep 
the  bandage  wet.     The  pain  and  soreness  will  soon  depart. 

For  Burns,  Scalds,  Abrasions  of  the  Skin,  etc.— Apply  a  cotton  cloth  wet 
with  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel;  keep  the  cloth  wet  with  the  Ex- 
tract; do  not  be  afraid  of  using  too  much.  It  will  allay  the  inflammation 
and  soreness  and  hasten  the  cure. 

For  Sunburn  and  March  Winds.— Bathe  and  apply  a  cotton  cloth  wet 
with  Dr.  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel :  a  few  times  will  relieve  the  pain 
and  restore  the  flesh  to  its  normal  condition. 

Chilblains  and  Frost-Bites.— Apply  the  Extract  free1y.  covering  with  a 
cloth  saturated  with  the  Extract.     A  few  applications  will  effect  a  cure. 

Sore  Feet,  Chafing,  etc.,  will  be  relieved  by  frequent  bathing  in  hot  water 
into  which  has  been  put  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel. 

For  Corns  and  Bunions. — Soak  in  hot  water;  with  a  sharp  knife  remove 
the  hardened  surface,  then  with  a  soft  p;ece  of  cotton  or  linen  keep  wet 
with   Dr.    Daniels'    Cloudy    Extract   of   Witch   Hazel. 

For  Fetid  Feet,  arising  from  perspiration,  soik  in  hot  water  and  rub 
briskly  with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel 

Cracked  Hands,  Rough  Skin.— Soak  and  wash  in  hot  water  to  which  has 
been  added  a  few  drops  of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus,  after  which  bind  up  with 

94  . 


a  soft  piece  of  cotton  cloth,  kept  wet  with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of 
Witch  Hazel. 

For  Fissures  and  Cracks  of  the  Skin. — These  very  often  occur  upon  the 
nipples  of  the  female  breast,  between  the  toes,  also  in  the  mucous  mem- 
brane of  the  lips,  anus,  vagina,  etc.,  and  should  be  washed  thoroughly  with 
warm  water  into  which  has  been  dropped  two  or  three  drops  of  Daniels' 
Carbo-Negus.  Then  apply  frequently  Dr.  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel. 
This  will  relieve  inflammation,  soreness,  and  facilitate  the  healing. 

Sores  of  almost  any  kind  should  be  washed  in  a  solution  of  Daniels' 
Carbo-Negus  and  warm  water,  10  to  15  drops  to  a  quart  of  water,  to 
destroy  all  germ  life,  after  which  apply  freely  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of 
Witch  Hazel.     Bandage  with  a  soft  cloth  and  keep  wet  with  the  Extract. 

Stings  of  Insects  and  Bites  of  Mosquitoes  and  Spiders  should  be  bathed 
freely  with  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel :  the  cloth  should  be  kept  wet 
with  the  Extract,  and  the  swelling  will  be  dispelled  and  the  pain  relieved. 

In  Affections  of  the  Mucous  Membrane  the  inflammation  oftentimes  be- 
comes chronic,  the  tissues  become  flabby,  and  the  flow  of  the  mucus  is 
largely  increased  as  in  Catarrh,  etc.  The  nose,  throat,  mouth,  stomach, 
intestines,  urethra,  vagina,  etc.,  contain  this  membranous  lining  and  make  it 
easy  for  us  to  understand  the  many  disagreeable  troubles  of  these  mem- 
branes- 

Catarrh,  which  is  nearly  universal  with  mankind  in  some  form  or  other, 
is  attended  with  much  inconvenience,  frequently  causing  pain  and  dis- 
charges of  mucus. 

Catarrh  of  the  Bladder  can  be  very  successfully  treated  by  the  use  of  Dr. 
Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel.  By  taking  a  teaspoonful  of 
Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  every  three  or  four  hours  during  the  day,  in- 
ternally, and  injecting  it  into  the  bladder  night  and  morning,  a  tablespoon- 
ful,  diluted  with  twice  the  quantity  of  warm  water,  at  a  temperature  of 
98 °  to  ioo°  F. 

Catarrh  of  the  Head  (Cold  in  the  Head,  etc.) — Carefully  cleanse  the  nos- 
trils; then  with  a  douche  or  syringe  inject  into  the  nostrils  a  solution  of 
warm  water  and  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel,  in  about  equal 
parts.  Tipping  the  head  back  the  solution  will  flow  through  the  nose  into 
the  mouth  and  thus  be  ejected.  Repeat  this  operation  two  or  three  times 
and  gargle  the  throat  night  and  morning. 

For  Sore  Throat. — Gargle  frequently  with  Daniels'  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel 
full  strength,  and  swallow  a  teaspoonful  once  in  three  or  four  hours ;  this 
will  give  relief,  allay  the  inflammation  and  reduce  the  discharge  of  mucus. 
A  cloth  kept  wet  in  Witch  Hazel  and  bound  around  the  throat  is  of  great 
benefit. 

Dr.  Daniels'  Extract  of  WTitch  Hazel  will  be  found  very  useful  in  Hay 
Fever.  With  a  nasal  douche  dilute  with  warm  water  about  equal  parts  and 
spray  the  throat  and  nose  two  or  three  times  a  day. 

For  Catarrh  of  the  Vagina. — This  includes  Whites  or  Leucorrhcea  and  is 
a  very  common  trouble,  being  purely  catarrhal  in  its  nature.  Use  two 
quarts  of  hot  water,  into  which  put  six  drops  of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus  and 
use  as  a  douche,  then  inject  equal  parts,  a  cupful  each,  of  Daniels'  Extract 

95

of  Witch  Hazel  and  hot  water,  retaining  the  same  ten  minutes.  The 
patient  should  lie  upon  her  back  with  a  bed-pan  under  her. 

For  Sore  Gums  and  Sore  Mouth,  whether  in  infants,  adults,  men  or  women, 
hold  about  a  teaspoonful  of  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  in 
the  mouth  a  few  minutes  and  saturate  the  afflicted  parts. 

Common  accidents  are  annoying  and  often  result  in  painful  and  danger- 
ous conditions,  but  in  most  cases  they  should  not  cause  any  extended 
trouble.  Should  there  be  a  cut,  draw  the  lips  of  the  wound  together,  wash 
away  the  blood  stains,  wind  a  bandage  about  the  injured  part;  beginning 
below,  wind  upwards ;  then^  saturate  and  keep  wet  with  a  soft  piece  of 
cloth  and  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel.  In  two  or  three  days 
remove  the  cloth  and  until  the  parts  are  firmly  united  apply  a  piece  of 
plaster. 

Dentists  will  find  Dr.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  of  great 
advantage  to  them  in  their  practice.  The  mouth  should  be  rinsed  with  it, 
and  it  should  be  injected  directly  into  the  wound. 

Bleeding  Nose. — Inject  carefully  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel 
into  both  nostrils,  throwing  the  head  back  and  allowing  the  fluid  to  pass 
into  the  mouth  from  which  it  can  be  ejected.  In  some  cases  it  will  be 
necessary  to  saturate  a  piece  of  soft  cloth  with  the  Extract. 

Piles. — It  does  not  matter  the  variety  or  the  kind ;  all  are  troublesome. 
Take  internally  three  times  a  day  a  teaspoonful  of  Darnels'  Extract  of 
Witch  Hazel.  Inject  a  teaspoonful  each  of  hot  water  and  Daniels'  Cloudv 
Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  night  and  morning.  Baihe  often  and  freely  with 
the  Extract ;  and  saturate  with  a  sponge  or  piece  of  cloth  and  keep  wet 
with  the  Extract;  apply  often  to  the  affected  parts  externally.  This  treat- 
ment will  almost  instantly  relieve  the  pain  and  in  a  very  short  time  cure 
the  piles. 

Earache. — When  from  neuralgia  a  swelling  is  noticed,  saturate  some  lint 
with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel,  hot,  and  carefully  fill  the 
ear,  covering  with  a  dry  cloth ;  repeat  and  keep  hot ;  it  will  act  as  a  poul- 
tice and  quickly  relieve  the  pain. 

Headache. — When  caused  from  neuralgia,  rub  the  temples  and  scalp  with 
Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel;  saturate  a  soft  piece  of  cloth 
and  lay  over  the  temples. 

As  a  Face  Wash,  nothing  is  more  refreshing  and  invigorating  than  Dan- 
iels' Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel. 

Toothache,  resulting  from  neuralgia  or  cold :  Saturate  a  piece  of  ab- 
sorbent cotton  with  Daniels'  Extract,  and  carefully  pack  around  the  gums 
and  aching  tooth. 

In  all  forms  of  sprains,  strains,  rheumatism  and  soreness  of  the  muscles, 
the  pain  and  lameness  will  be  relieved  by  a  generous  application  of  Daniels' 
Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel,  and  a  brisk  rubbing;  also  bind  around 
the  affected  parts  a  cloth  wet  with  the  Extract. 

Black  Eye  and  Bruised  Skin  will  be  quickly  relieved  by  keeping  a  soft 
cloth  wet  with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  upon  the  injured 
surface- 
Sore  Throat,  Inflammation  of  the  Tonsils,  Cold  in  the  Head,  Hoarseness, 
etc. — Gargle  the  throat  with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  three 

96

or  four  times  a  day.  Saturate  a  piece  of  flannel  in  the  Extract  and  bind 
around  the  throat  and  cover  with  a  dry  cloth.  If  the  cold  appears  in  the 
head,  dilute  the  Extract  with  warm  water  in  equal  parts ;  with  a  nasal 
douche,  inject  into  the  nostrils,  or  snuff  it  up.  This  treatment,  repeated 
three  or  four  times  a  day,  will  invariably  give  relief. 

Sore  Lungs. — Take  a  teaspoonful  of  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch 
Hazel  four  or  six  times  a  day. 

Itching. — Bind  a  cloth  wet  with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel 
to  the  affected  parts  and  renew  until  the  itching  has  ceased,  which  will  be 
very  soon. 

Scratches. — Whether  by  animals,  plants  or  shrubs,  bathe  frequently  with 
Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract,  and  bind  upon  the  affected  part  a  soft  cloth  wet 
with  the  Extract. 

Eruptions  of  the  Skin,  Pimples,  etc. — Of  course  these  are  always  caused 
by  humor  in  the  system,  or  from  the  condition  of  the  stomach,  and  should 
be  treated  under  the  advice  of  a  physician.  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of 
Witch  Hazel  will,  however,  be  found  most  valuable  in  reducing  the  in- 
flammation, stopping  the  itching,  and  in  a  short  time  causing  the  eruptions 
to  disappear. 

Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  as  a  toilet  article  is  a  necessity 
for  every  lady  and  gentleman.  It  is  better  than  any  of  the  so-called  prepared 
cosmetics,  lotions  or  powders. 

Redness  and  Roughness  of  the  Skin  and  Chapped  Hands. — Should  be  freely 
bathed  with  the  Extract.  This  will  restore  the  skin  to  its  natural  color  and 
make  the  skin  firm  and  flexible. 

Prickly  Heat. — Bathe  frequently  with  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of  Witch 
Hazel.  If  the  arms  and  neck  have  been  exposed,  a  thorough  bathing  with 
the  Extract  and  a  good  rubbing  will  insure  one  from  taking  cold. 

For  Gentlemen.— As  a  wash  for  the  face  after  shaving,  Daniels'  Cloudy 
Extract  of  Witch  Hazel  will  be  found  far  superior  to  Bay  Rum,  Florida  or 
Violet  Water.  It  quickly  reduces  the  inflammation  which  remains  after  the 
-use  of  the  razor,  stops  the  bleeding,  if  any,  and  makes  the  skin  firm  and 
flexible.     It  is  used  by  the  best  barbers  throughout  the  United  States. 

For  Athletes,  and  those  who  take  daily  exercise,  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract 
of  Witch  Hazel  will  be  found  of  great  advantage,  stimulating  the  muscles 
and  cords,  and  removing  all  soreness  and  swelling. 

For  a  Rub  Down  it  has  no  equal,  as  thousands  all  over  the  country  will 
testify. 

For  Dandruff,  Scaly  Scalp,  Loss  of  Hair,  Daniels'  Cloudy  Extract  of 
Witch  Hazel  will  be  found  one  of  the  most  efficient  remedies  for  these 
troubles  in  existence.  Wash  the  hair  with  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus,  diluted 
one-half,  and  rinse  clean  with  warm  water.  Apply  Daniels'  Cloudy  Ex- 
tract of  Witch  Hazel  freely,  massaging  the  scalp  briskly.  This  will  insure 
a  clean  scalp  and  prevent  the  hair  from  falling  out.  Not  one  man  in  a 
hundred  need  have  a  bald  head,  if  this  advice  will  be  followed  when  dan- 
druff is  first  discovered. 

Dandruff  is  caused  by  a  germ;  the  germ  must  be  destroyed  before  a 
healthy  scalp  can  be  insured. 

Like  all  good  things,  Dr.  Daniels'  Witch  Hazel  is  imitated.

ALWAYS  READY 


VETERI  NAF^Y 
PHYSIC  BlAJULv 

The  only  safe  and  reliable  Physic  Ball  on  the 
market.  Physic  at  times  is  as  necessary  for 
your  horse  as  food  or  stable.  This  is  a  well- 
known  fact,  but  it  is  a  treatment  sadly  neg- 
lected, not  because  you  were  ignorant  of  the 
benefits  to  be  derived,  but  the  trouble  required, 
and  the  uncertain  results  to  follow,  hardly 
seem  to  warrant  the  effort.  It  has  always  been 
a  difficult  medicine  to  administer.  Either  a  copious  drench  distributed  al- 
most anywhere  except  the  desired  spot,  or  a  hard,  dangerous  mass  in  the 
form  of  a  so-called  ''Ball,"  liable  to  choke  the  horse,  and  not  liable  to  give 
satisfactory  results  even  if  successfully  given ;  these  have  deterred  you  from 
giving  physic  often  when  you  knew  it  would  be  of  benefit  to  the  horse. 

Dr.  Daniels'  Physic  Ball  does  away  with  all  this  uncertainty,  danger  and 
trouble.  Like  all  of  his  remedies,  simplicity  and  common  sense  makes  it 
easy  for  anyone  to  give  this  truly  desirable  remedy  to  the  horse,  without 
danger  to  the  animal  or  discomfiture  to  the  person.  It  is  the  kind  to  use 
because  it  keeps  good  in  any  climate,  any  length  of  time;  is  sure,  safe,  re- 
liable, easy  to  administer,  always  works,  and  always  pleases  you  in  results. 
Dr.  Daniels'  Physic  Ball  is  always  to  be  given  when  symptoms  indicate  Colic, 
Staggers,  Congestion  of  the  Brain,  W  orms,  Indigestion,  Hide-bound,  Dropsy, 
Founder,  Lymphangitis,  Spinal  Meningitis,  etc.,  etc.  Dr.  Daniels'  Physic  Balls 
are  made  in  two  sizes,  Nos.  I  and  2.  No.  1  is  especially  prepared  for  large 
horses,  while  No.  2  is  compounded  for  small  horses  and  colts,  or  to  be  given 
as  a  laxative.    The  same  directions  for  use  apply  to  both. 


RULES  TO  OBSERVE  WHEN  TREATING  WITH  PHYSIC 

Never  give  physic  second  time  within  ten  days.  Never  give  cold  water 
during  or  immediately  after  administering  a  Physic  Ball,  take  off  the  chill. 
Do  not  work  the  horse  or  expose  to  draughts,  wet  weather  or  cold  during  the 
operation  of  a  physic  or  even  the  day  after.  In  some  cases  like  Meningitis, 
etc.,  where  quick  action  is  required,  a  Physic  Ball  has  to  be  given  at  first 
symptoms  discovered ;  but  generally  it  is  best  to  prepare  a  horse  for  a  physic. 
You  then  secure  the  best  results  in  the  quickest  and  safest  manner.  For 
twenty-four  hours  before  giving  physic,  feed  warm  bran  mashes,  always  add- 
ing one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  to  each  mash  (no  grain  or  hay). 
After  giving  Physic  Ball  the  feed  should  be  light ;  mashes  with  Renovator 
Powders  until  operation,  is  best.  _  After  operation  feed  long  hay  for  first 
day  (no  grain).  Then  resume  with  regular  feed,  but  add  one  of  Daniels' 
Renovator  Powders  morning  and  night  for  a  week.  This  treatment  care- 
fully administered   will   cleanse   the   system   and   ensure   a   speedy   return   to

strength  and  spirits.  Should  the  purging  be  too  profuse,  give  a  little  flour 
with  arrow-root.  An  injection  of  warm  water  and  soap  is  useful  in  dis- 
solving any  obstructions,  and  a  gentle  exercise  of  twenty  minutes,  twelve  to 
twenty-four  hours  after  giving  physic,  often  assists  moving  of  the  bowels. 

Kow  to  give  Physic  Bails. — Always  loosen  the  horse  before  attempting  to 
give  a  ball:  open  the  mouth,  grasp  the  tongue  firmly  with  the  left  hand, 
gently  pull  forward  on  the  off-side  of  the  mouth  and  there  fixed,  not  by  con- 
tinuing to  pull  at  it,  but  by  pressing  the  fingers  against  the  side  of  the  lower 
jaw.  The  Ball  being  now  taken  between  the  tips  of  the  fingers  of  the  right 
hand,  slightly  moistened,  is  passed  rapidly  up  the  mouth,  as  near  to  the 
palate  as  possible,  until  it  reaches  the  root  of  the  tongue.  It  is  there  deliv- 
ered with  a  slight  jerk,  and  the  hand  being  immediately  withdrawn,  and  the 
tongue  let  go,  which,  when  drawn  back,  carries  the  Ball  with  it.  Its  passage 
should  be  watched  down  the  left  side  of  the  throat  and  if  it  is  not  seen 
going  down,  a  few  gulps  of  warm  water  (which  have  handy)  will  usually 
convey  it  to  the  stomach.  Daniels'  Physic  Balls  are  always  safe  and  satis- 
factory. Requires  about  24  hours  for  physic  to  operate.  Do  not  look  for 
or  expect  a  copious  watery  discharge  in  operation;  such  is  not  intended  or 
to  be  desired. 

All  animals  while  at  rest  immediately  after  work  should  be  protected 
from  cold  air  or  draughts.  When  put  in  a  stable  that  is  warm  and  no 
draughts,  blankets  are  unnecessary ;  if  stable  is  cold  and  wind  is  blowing 
through  it,  blanket  the  horse.  It  is  also  wise  to  always  "cool  off"  the  horse 
that  has  been  hard  worked  and  overheated  by  slowly  walking  about  until 
"dried  off."  Your  horse,  stopped  on  the  road  when  warm  or  exhausted,  if 
only  for  a  few  moments,  should  be  blanketed. 

Don't  drive  your  heated  horse  through  a  stream  of  cold  water.  Lots  of 
trouble  ensues  from  thus  doing.  Avoid  washing  the  legs  in  cold  water 
when  coming  into  the  stable  from  work — "dry  them  out"  first.  Change  in 
shoeing  should  not  be  too  abrupt — gradual  change  from  one  form  or  style 
shoe  to  another  will  prevent  many  forms  of  lameness.

How  to  Locate  Lameness 

When  at  rest  the  horse  pointing  one  foot  in  front  of  its  mate  indicates 
lameness  of  that  leg. 

When  the  upper  part  is  extended,  knee  bent,  and  the  foot  nearly  in  line 
with  its  mate,  look  for  lameness  at  the  elbow. 

If  the  limb  be  relaxed,  the  knee  bent,  one  foot  behind  the  other,  look  for 
the  lameness  in  the   shoulder. 

Hind  foot  knuckling,  or  off  the  ground,  shows  lame  hind  foot. 

If  one  hind  leg  is  held  in  front  of  its  mate,  look  for  the  lameness  below 
or  in  the  hock. 

Both  hind  feet  well  forward,  head  up,  both  front  feet  may  be  lame. 

Fore  feet  back  under  the  chest,  leaning  forward,  head  down,  both  hind  feet 
may  be  lame. 

If  your  horse  be  on  the  road  and  his  head  nods  and  dips,  there  is  lameness 
forward. 

If  the  head  drop  to  the  right,  look  for  lameness  on  the  left,  while  if  the 
head  drop  to  the  left,  the  lameness  is  on  the  right. 

If  croup  be  dipping,  the  lameness  is  behind. 

If  the  foot  is  lifted  straight  up. and  quickly,  lameness  in  hind  foot  or  hock; 
remember  the  hip  drops  opposite  to  the  lame  side. 

Thus  if  the  nodding  of  the  head  and  the  dropping  of  the  hip  be  on  the  left 
side,  look  for  lameness  on  the  right. 

The  reverse  of  these  movements  shows  lameness  on  the  other  side,  so  it  is 
not  so  hard  to  tell  in  which  leg  lies  the  lameness. 

Fore  foot  swung  around  sort  of  half-circle  near  the  ground,  lameness  is 
probably  in  elbow  or  shoulder.  Lead  him  to  step  over  some  obstacle.  If  he 
steps  over  it  is  not  shoulder  lameness. 

If  the  toe  is  brought  down  first,  look  for  Sidebone,  Sprain  of  Back  Sinews, 
Sprain  of  Suspensory  Ligaments,  Navicular  Disease,  Shoulder  Lameness  or 
Hip-Joint  Lameness. 

If  the  foot  ism  brought  down  heel  first,  look  for  Founder,  Seedytoe,  Ring- 
bone, Stifle  Joint  Lameness. 

If,  when  you  first  drive  out,  little  lameness  or  perhaps  none,  but  increases 
or  appears,  look  for  Splint,  Sore  Shins,  Side-bones  or  Knee-joint  Lameness. 

When  considerably  lame  at  starting,  but  seems  to  wear  away,  look  for 
Navicular,  Grogginess,  Rheumatism,   etc. 

When  trotting  along  straight  no  lameness  is  noticed,  but  in  turning  quickly 
it  appears  prominent,  Spring-halts  or  Sprained  Back. 

Having  located  the  lameness  in  a  certain  limb  does  not  always  make  it  an 
easy  matter  to  say  where  in  that  limb  lies  the  trouble,  but  it  is  well  to  re- 
member this  one  faet — the  foot  has  much  greater  liability  to  lameness  than 
any  other  portion  o»f  the  limb ;  hence,  no  matter  what  your  final  conclusions 
may  be,  stick  to  the  foot  until  you  are  positive  it  is  free  from  injury  or 
defect ;  then  continue  your  examination  upward  with  care,  feeling  with  a 
keen  sense  of  touch  for  any  heat,  sign  of  swelling  or  indication  of  tender- 
ness, watching  with  a  clear  eye  every  movement  of  the  leg  from  every  point 
of  view,  front,  side  and  rear.  Doing  this  thoroughly  and  comparing  results 
with  foregoing  remarks  will  enable  you  to  nearly  always  correctly  locate  the 
cause  of  lameness. 

102 


wr-* —  ^> 

It  may  be  well  to  bear  in  mind  the  origin  of  Splints,  Spavins,  Ring-bone, 
etc. ;  known  in  their  maturity  as  exostosis,  are  in  their  source  periostitis, 
which  is  an  inflammation  of  "the  enveloping  membranes,  caused  by  external 
influences  on  leg,  severe  strains  and  sprains  involving  these  membranes,  and 
which,  if  not  allayed,  lead  to  deposits  of  a  bony  growth.  These  conditions 
are  obscure  in  the  beginning  and  difficult  to  determine,  but  at  the  first  pos- 
sible moment  treatment  should  begin.  Every  moment  of  delay  but  makes 
the  cureynore  in  doubt. 

Hot  Fomentations  (to  the  leg). — Beginning  at  a  point  below  the  injury, 
wind  woolen  bandages  around  and  above  the  swelling,  leaving  them  quite 
loose  at  the  top,  to  act  as  a  funnel ;  pour  into  them  the  hot  Liniment  Pow- 
der Solution ;  to  steam,  cover  with  dry  bandage-  It  is  a  good  plan  to  use 
cold  fomentation  immediately  after  hot  (alternating  from  hot  to  cold),  in 
many  cases.  It  is  better  to  take  off  bandages  in  the  morning,  and  rub  on  a 
little  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  for  strains,  sprains  or  swellings;  or  Wonder 
Worker  Lotion,  for  sores,  cuts  and  wounds. 


Indications  of  Disease  in  the  Horse 

When  there  is  an  unusual  dullness  and  sleepiness  or  extreme  wakeful- 
ness or  wildness,  it  indicates  brain  trouble.  Palsy,  spasms,  and  convulsions 
lead  to  the  same  trouble.  A  prominent  and  swollen  condition  of  both  eyes 
also   indicates  congestion  of  the  brain. 

Coughing  is  the  most  important  symptom  of  disease  in  the  breathing  organs. 
It  is  moist  in  catarrh,  colds,  etc.  It  is  dry  in  the  first  stages  of  colds,  pleurisy 
and  broken  wind,  roaring  and  indigestion,  worms  and  liver  disease.  Rapid 
and  difficult  breathing  indicates  lung  affections.  When  the  breathing  is  more 
difficult  than  usual  in  the  belly  it  is  an  indication  of  pleurisy  in  the  walls  of 
the  chest. 

Diseases  of  the  Digestive  Organs.  —  Abnormal  appetite  usually  indicates 
worms  or  irritation  of  the  stomach.  In  diarrhoea  the  discharges  from  the 
bowels  are  frequent  and  watery;  in  constipation,  infrequent,  dry  and  hard. 
When  an  animal  passes  blood,  it  is  generally  from  dysentery,  piles,  ulcers 
in  the  bowels,  or  rupture-  Swelling  of  the  belly,  unusual  discharges  of  wind, 
and  fits  of  giddiness  are  common  in  colic  and  indigestion.     Watch  the  signs. 

Embolisms  cause  certain  forms  of  lameness,  almost  impossible  to  locate 
by  the  inexperienced,  caused  by  certain  conditions  of  the  blood  vessels, 
forming  clots  in  the  arteries.  They  increase  in  size,  passing  from  pne  to 
another  until  arrested  at  some  point,  they  prevent  further  circulation  in  that 
direction,  causing  swellings  and  painful  lameness.  The  hind  legs  in  par- 
ticular illustrate  this  disease.  When  the  horse,  seeming  in  good  condition, 
shows  lameness  in  one  leg,  the  more  he  is  worked,  the  faster  the  gait,  the 
greater  the  lameness;  being  allowed  to  rest,  the  lameness  disappears.  The 
trouble  is  there,  and  again  put  to  work,  walking  may  not  show  it  much, 
but  put  to  a  trot  he  slackens  pace,  and  if  pushed  becomes  lamer  and  lamer, 
refuses  to  go,  breakes  into  profuse  perspiration,  actually  falling  down  if  not 
allowed  to  rest,  but  always  repeating  this  act  if  again  put  to  work.     When 

1C3 


«-y ■ — ■ ■ — '■  Y — » 

your  horse  shows  symptoms  like  these,  if  you  can  find  no  other  reasons 
for  such,  it  is  safe  to  conclude  Embolism  is  present,  and  there  is  no  cure 
for  it  in  most  cases.  It  is  possible  in  a  few  cases,  when  not  too  extreme, 
to  overcome  the  trouble,  turn  to  pasture  and  rest.  Nature  will  do  all  that 
can  be  done. 


How  to  Tell  When  Your  Horse  is  Sick 

Symptoms.— When  the  horse  has  Distended  Abdomen,  belches,  seems 
bloated,  covered  with  cold  sweat,  indications  of  pain,  paws  viciously,  ears 
cold,  look  out  for  Volte: 

When  the  horse  shows  lack  of  strength,  emaciated,  hair  dull  and  dry, 
hidebound,   skin  scurfy,  has  that  tired   feeling,  he  is  out  of    Condition. 

When  the  horse  has  shivering  spells,  followed  by  heated  skin,  restless, 
loss  of  appetite,  dry  and  hot  mouth,  membranes  of  eyes  and  nose  inflamed, 
persistent    pain,    quick    breathing,    constipated — look    out    for    Enteritis. 

When  the  horse  paws  slowly,  pulse  running  up,  shivering  fits,  pain  upon 
pressure  to  abdomen,  lies  down  with  care,  perhaps  on  his  back,  soon  remain- 
ing quiet,  bowels  inactive,  tongue  coated,  look  for   Peritonitis. 

When  the  horse  comes  in  from  exposure,  wet  and  cold,  rub  him  dry,  give 
one  to  three  doses  of  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops,  blanket  and  feed, 
adding  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders,  and  he  will  not  have  anything  for 
you  to  worry  about,  he  will  go  right  on  earning  your  money.

DIET 

Diet  for  your  horse  should  be  varied.  Never  feed  the  same  diet  contin- 
uously. Oats,  Corn  and  many  other  things  constitute  good  feed,  but  not  all 
the  time, — variety.  I  do  not  mean  by  this  a  sudden  and  radical  change  in 
feed.  If  an  animal  has  been  fed  on  corn,  meal  or  oats,  don't  turn  him  out 
to  depend  entirely  on  grass,  or  he  may  scour. 

If  he  be  fat  and  lazy,  grass  feed  will,  no  doubt,  reduce  flesh  and  blood, 
but  if  he  be  thin,  he  should  have  a  little  cracked  corn  or  oats  or  both,  which, 
with  the  grass,  will  soon  put  him  into  condition. 

Most  horses  are  overfed,  not  all  of  them,  but  a  great  majority.  When 
the  horse  passes  much  undigested  food,  try  feeding  him  less. 

Three  meals  a  day  of  the  proper  kind  of  feed  is  better  than  attempts  to 
eat  all  the  horse  can  hold. 

Feed  according  to  the  size  of  the  horse  and  work  required.  Many  coun- 
try horses  are  given  hay,  which  they  eat  until  they  look  as  if  they  were 
"blown  up/"     Don't  think  they  must  eat  hay  all  day. 

It  is  not  well  to  water  immediately  before,  and  never  should  be  done 
right  after  eating.  An  hour  or  so  after  would  be  a  good  time.  Don't  feed 
and  water  on  the  road  when  it  can  be  avoided.  If  we  feed  too  little  we 
soon  find  it  out.  The  horse  will  grow  thin  and  if  too  much  feed  be  given, 
the  animal  shows  it  by  disease  and  death.  .Hence,  study  the  animal's  wants 
and  use  your  good  judgment. 

Feeding,  —  Oats,  Corn,  crushed,  occasionally  from  the  cob,  best  of  Hay 
is  the  cheapest,  Chopped  Roots  and  Fruit,  Carrots,  Potatoes,  Apples,  etc., 
etc.,  and  keep  the  teeth  in  proper  shape,  Green  Grass  a  little,  when  possible, 
Mashes  frequently  and  add  my  Renovator  Powders  occasionally,  and  you 
will  keep  your  horses  as  near  right  as  possible. 

HOW  TO  ADfllNISTER  A  DRINK  OR  DRENCH 

An  ordinary  glass  bottle  may  be  used,  provided  there  are  no  points 
around  the  mouth,  but  either  the  usual  drenching  horn  or  a  tin  vessel  with 
a  narrow  mouth  or  spout  is  safer.  The  head  should  not  be  raised  higher 
than  a  horizontal  position,  by  which  the  fluid  gravitates  to  the  back  of  the 
throat.     The  medicine  should  be  given  in  moderate  quantities  and  each  por- 

106 


ijr-* ; ■ *-* 

tion  swallowed  before  another  is  given.  Avoid  the  use  of  ail  kinds  of  gag 
for  the  mouth,  and  do  not  pull  out  the  tongue,  as  these  are  ready  means 
of  choking  the  animal.  The  drink  must  be  given  by  a  person  standing  on 
the  right  side,  the  side  of  the  mouth  being  pulled  out  a  little  to  form  a  sack 
cr  funnel,  into  which  the  medicine  is  poured,  allowing  an  interval  now  and 
again  for  the  horse  to  swallow.  If  any  of  the  fluid  gets  into  the  wind-pipe 
it  will  cause  coughing,  whereupon  the  head  should  be  immediately  lowered. 

Gestation  Period  of  Animals. —  The  period  of  gestation  varies  in  different 
animals.  In  the  mare  it  is  about  eleven  months,  or  330  days,  but  varies.  A 
young  mare  may  not  carry  the  foal  as  long.  The  longest  time  we  have  on  rec- 
ord for  a  mare  to  carry  a  foal  is  419  days,  and  the  shortest  time  is  237  days. 
A  case  is  recorded  of  a  mare  having  a  foal  at  thirty  years  old.  Mares  moder- 
ately kept  and  worked  will  breed  longer  than  one  well  fed  and  not  exercised. 
A  case  is  recorded  where  a  filly  had  a  foal  at  twenty-two  months  old,  and 
heifers  at  fourteen  months  old;  but  four  years  is  young  enough  for  colts  to 
begin  breeding,  and  heifers  should  not  until  a  year  and  8  or  9  months  old. 
Ihe  mare  may  be  worked  up  to  two  or  three  weeks  of  her  time,  but  should 
have  several  weeks'  rest  after.  The  foal  may  be  weaned  at  five  to  six 
months.  The  gestation  period  in  the  cow  is  about  nine  months,  or  270  days; 
240  days  the  shortest,  and  290  the  longest.  In  the  ewe  it  is  about  five 
months.  In  the  bitch  it  is  about  sixty-three  days.  In  the  sow  it  is  from 
115  to  140  days.  The  heifer  should  be  a  year  and  8  or  9  months  old 
when  bred. 

Water.  —  Now  a  word  as  to  water  for  your  stock.  Much  disease  is 
created  in  stock  from  the  impure  water  furnished  to  drink.  Your  horse, 
cow  or  any  other  animal  should  have  pure  water  to  drink ;  stagnant  pool 
or  pond  water  never  allowed,  a  running  stream  or  clean  trough,  and  it  won't 
do  harm  to  clean  out  the  trough  once  in  a  while.  Pure  Air,  Pure  Water, 
Proper  Feed  will  do  more  to  keep  your  stock  in  condition  than  anything  else 
you  can  do. 

The  Frog. — You  know  the  frog  should  never  be  pared  or  cut  so  it  cannot 
come  in  contact  with  the  ground.  It  is  a  cushion  for  the  foot.  Remember 
Dr.  Daniels'  Perfection  Hoof  Dressing  is  the  best  packing;  it  feeds  the  hoof 
and  frog  to  a  healthy  growth,  preventing  contraction  and  foot  ills.  Apply 
once  a  day. 

Rupture  of  the  Stomach.— No  Cure.  This  is  often  taken  for  Colic.  Paws, 
looks  at  flanks,  rolls,  pulse  small,  breathing  with  labor,  profuse  perspira- 
tion, head  near  the  floor,  tail  up  and  quivering,  standing  in  a  crouching 
position,  fore  legs  extended,  walking  about  in  a  circle,  sits  on  his  haunches, 
a  few  convulsive  struggles  and  dies.  Don't  think  this  Colic.  Don't  drench 
with  quarts  of  Gin,  Pepper,  Fire  Water,  etc.,  of  any  sort.  Remember  in 
Colic  and  all  Stomach  troubles,  there  is  too  much  there  already — and  don't 
mistake  these  symptoms   for   Colic. 

Stone  in  the  Bladder. — Symptoms  much  like  colic,  but  inquiry  will 
show  much  irregularity  in  the  discharge  of  urine,  sometimes  entirely  sup- 
pressed. A  peculiar  point  to  notice  is  the  apparent  groan  after  voiding 
the  urine.  A  Veterinary  should  be  called  to  extract  them  and  you  can 
safely  and  with  profit  give  two  or  three  60-drop  doses  of  my  Colic  Cure.  It 
relieves  the  pain  and  frequently  allows  the  muscles  to  relax  sufficient  to 
expel  the  calculi  or  stones.

Hereditary. — The  size,  weight,  general  appea-ance,  cdor,  expression,  disposition, 
speed,  etc.,  are  all  hereditary  tendencies;  the  faults  atd  weakness  are  as  much  heredi- 
tary as  the  marks  of  merit  and  speed;  the  bad  points  and  good  points  are  alike  heredi- 
tary; health  and  disease  are  many  times  hereditary.  Thus  Bone  Spavin  is  generally 
seen  when  the  regular  proportions  of  the  limb  above  and  below  the  hock  are  not  main- 
tained. Curbs  where  the  hock  is  straight  and  the  oscalces  is  small.  Strains  of  the  fore 
leg  tendons  when  the  limb  is  round  with  the  tendons  confined  at  the  knee.  Navicular 
disease  of  the  foot  when  the  toes  turn  out  and  the  chest  is  narrow.  These  are  but  few 
of  the  hereditary  defects  of  the  horse.  We  may  cortinue  the  course  through  many 
external  and  internal  troubles,  all  easily  traced  to  hereditary  tendencies. 

Founder  of  the  chest  so-called:  purely  a  muscle  ill  (over-driving).  The  animal 
steps  short,  slow  and  stiff,  back  arched,  skin  hot,  if  pressure  be  made  to  the  sides  of 
the  chest  indications  of  pain  will  show,  breaths  short  and  jerky,  pulse  from  40  to  60, 
forefeet  hot,  inflamed  and  extended,  good  appetite,  constipated,  urine  high  colored 
(p.   333  Dodds) 

Founder  in  the  Feet. — Laminitis  (p.  350  Dodds). 

Sand  or  Quarter  Cracks  (usually  in  the  forefeet)  caused  by  dryness,  heat,  contrac- 
tion. The  crack  occurs  through  the  border  of  the  hoof,  extends  downward  perha;  s  half 
way,  or,  sometimes,  reaching  nearly  to  the  bottom  of  the  hoof,  it  penetrates  quite  through 
the  hoof.     Sand  crack  often  runs  into  Seedytoe. 

Toe  Sand  Crack  of  the  hind  foot,  caused  by  shoeing,  violence,  straining,  treading, 
begins  at  the  coronet,  extends  downward  more  or  less  through  the  hoof  but  ultimately 
reaching  the  toe,  opening  all  the  way  down,  inflamed,  suppurating  and  even  growing 
worse,  almost  beyond  description  (p.  358). 

Inflammation  of  the  Metacarpal  bones,  Sore  Shins. 

Symptoms. — The  leg  swells,  an  elastic  doughy  feeling  over  the  shin  bone,  tender 
to  touch,  considerable  heat,  if  not  removed  changes  finally  to  bony  matter. 

Treatment. — Should  be  prompt,  apply  hot  and  cold  water  alternately  until  inflam- 
mation is  somewhat  allayed,  then  blister.  Give  4  to  6  30-drop  doses  of  Daniels'  Fever 
Drops  morning  and  night,  a  good  physic  followed  by  light  feed,  bran  mashes  frequently 
and  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  for  a  week  or  so. 

Polypus. — Growth  in  the  nose,  obstructing  breathing,  usually  a  pear-shaped  growth. 
Forms  in  the  nasal  cavities.  Besides  obstruction  to  breathing,  a  mucous  discharge  comes 
from  both  nostrils,  sometimes  pure  blood  runs  alirost  in  a  stream  from  nose.  The 
Veterinary  should  be  called  to  operate. 

Chorea. — A  nervous  twitching  of  the  muscles  peculiar  to  animals  of  a  nervous  dis- 
position. Give  Nerve  Tonic,  3  to  4  regular  doses  of  my  No.  1  Colic  Cure  every  morning 
and  evening,  and  my  Renovator  Powders  in  the  feed  once  daily,  for  two  weeks. 
Electric  Massage  along  the  spine  daily.     If  caused  by  brain  lesions,  no  cure. 

Cornea. — Sleepy,  staggers,  sluggish  or  staggering  gait,  drowsy,  almost  insensible^ 
constipated,  no  fever  or  pain.  Give  Physic  Ball,  change  feed  and  give  two  doses  daily 
of  my  Renovator  Powders.

DR.  A.  C.  DANIELS' 

Warranted  Veterinary 
^Medicines  for  Cows 
and  Cattle 

Dairymen  and  owners  of  cows 
will  find  Daniels'  Veterinary  Medi- 
cines of  great  benefit  and  val  -  in 
treating  their  stock  in  ordinary  rnd  every-day  accidents  and  ills. 

Aborting. — To  prevent  cows  aborting  should  be  our  first  study.  With  this 
as  a  starting  point,  I  will  give  a  few  rules  to  observe.  Avoid  blows  and 
kicks;  slipping  on  icy  places;  straining  and  jumping.  Do  not  chill  the  in- 
ternal organs  with  too  much  ice-cold  water;  avoid  overfeeding  or  too  rich 
foods ;  plan  to  preserve  digestion ;  have  platforms  long  enough  for  the  cow 
to  stand  and  lie  down  upon ;  avoid  breeding  in-and-in ;  this  is  of  vital 
importance,  and  must  be  noted  and  observed  if  you  intend  to  avoid  aborting. 
Things  you  can  do  to  save  your  cow  from  aborting:  If  she  be  large  with 
calf,  give  a  dose  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  every  morning  in  the  feed 
three  or  four  weeks  before  calving,  and  for  the  benefit  of  both  cow  and  calf 
continue  same  for  three  weeks  after;  provide  comfortable,  clean  quarters 
?nd  surroundings. 

Things  you  must  not  allow:  Undue  excitement  and  running;  left  to  the 
wet  or  cold  with  neglect;  ergotized,  moulded,  frosted,  wet  or  otherwise 
damaged  foods,  foul  atmosphere  and  filthy  surroundings.  Do  not  give  ordi- 
nary Condition  Pozvders. 

The  odor  of  uterine  discharges  should  be  carefully  avoided,  as  neglect  in 
this  matter  may  be  the  cause  of  epidemic  abortion,  the  whole  herd  becoming 
infected.  Therefore  watch  all  cows  in  pregnancy,  and  at  firsf  sign  separate 
and  isolate  from  the  rest.  The  symptoms  to  be  noted:  "Cow  off  her  feed"; 
dull  and  listless;  lies  down,  or  stands  much  longer  than  her_  usual  custom; 
shows  signs  of  uneasiness  :  paws :  a  slight  discharge  of  whitish  fluid ;  if  in 
advanced  stage,  the  discharge  will  be  yellow  or  reddish.  When  any  of  the 
signs  are  seen,  it  is  high  time  to  heed.  Isolate,  deliver  as  soon  as  possible, 
and  bury  deep  the  fetus  and  after-birth,  disinfect  the  premises  freely,  using 
strong  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  unon  floor,  ground,  etc.  My  Carbo-Negus 
is  especially  desirable  for  disinfecting  after  aborting  because  of  its  strong 
odor,  killing  all  odor  of  the  lochia.  Having  here  given  some  general  infor- 
mation on  what  to  avoid  and  what  to  do,  I  may  say  again,  build  for  strength 
snd  blood;  use  care  as  to  treatment,  and  nature  will  do  the  rest.  Daniels' 
Renovator  Powders  will  do  more  to  build  and  purify  the  blood  and  aid  diges- 
tion, thus  giving  the  animal  the  benefit  of  what  she  eats,  than  anything  you 
can  do  for  her;  all  through  the  gestation  period  (which  is  from  240  to  300 
days,  the  average  being  about  283  days)  feed  for  a  week  at  a  time  during 
pregnancy  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily,  at  intervals  of  two  or^  three 
weeks ;  following  this  treatment  will  prove  of  profit  to  anyone  trying  to 
raise  high-bred  stock,  and  reduce  aborting  to  a  minimum. 

109 


**•* -.-u.....      ... ■ — ■ su^ 

After  aborting  the  cow  should  have  particular  attention.  The  after-birth 
having  been  removed,  the  vagina  should  be  thoroughly  cleansed;  syringing  the 
same  with  a  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (teaspoonful  to  quart  of  warm  water)  ; 
keep  separate  from  the  rest  of  the  herd  for  four  or  five  weeks;  the  balance 
of  the  cows  should  be  looked  after  at  once ;  feed  one  of  my  Renovator  Pow- 
ders every  morning,  and  every  evening  give  one-half  ounce  of  chlorate  of 
potash ;  look  to  good  sanitary  conditions  and  proper  feed  for  the  rest.  The 
cow  aborting  should  not  again  be  bred  until  in  heat  four  times',  as  if  con- 
ceiving earlier  will  no  doubt  abort  again.  If  a  cow  aborts  twice  in  succession, 
fat  and  kill.  The  main  cause  for  aborting  no  doubt  is  lack  of  mineral  matter 
in  the  feed.  My  Renovator  Powders  will  supply  this  want.  Another  cause 
is  the  bull.  Do  not  use  one  that  has  served  before  for  a  week;  have  service 
in  the  evening  or  late  afternoon ;  stable  the  cow  by  herself  for  a  day  or  two, 
keeping  her  away  from  the  possibility  of  teasing  by  the  bull  during  preg- 
nancy. 

Calving. — Cows  require  assistance  in  delivering  more  than  any  of  the 
lower  animals-  Don't,  however,  be  too  previous.  Wait  patiently.  Do  not 
offer  help  so  long  as  water  has  not  "burst."  unless  there  is  some  irregularity 
in  the  neck  of  the  womb,  the  neck  of  which  is  sometimes  rigid,  at  others  is 
bent  or  twisted.  In  case  of  rigidity,  smear  a  little  extract  of  belladonna 
around  the  neck  of  the  womb.  In  many  cases,  however,  one  cannot  wait  for 
action  from  this  mode  of  treatment.  At  such  times  secure  a  blunt-pointed, 
narrow,  sharp  knife,  fix  the  mouth  of  the  womb  with  the  forefinger,  slip  the 
knife  along  the  finger  until  it  comes  in  contact  with  the  neck  of  the  womb, 
entering  not  more  than  one-fourth ;  make  a  slight  cut  on  each  side  of  the 
neck,  just  a  small  puncture,  when  the  contraction  will  be  overcome  by  the 
waters.  The  "twisting"  is  still  more  serious,  and  a  surgeon  should  be 
sought.  There  are  also  five  or  six  unnatural  positions  of  the  calf  which 
require  the  surgeon's  aid. 

After-birth  is  sometimes  retained  because  of  poor  condition,  or  hasty  de- 
livery; a  day  or  two  under  most  conditions  is  of  no  consequence,  but  long 
delayed,  becomes  serious.  In  such  cases  introduce  the  hand ;  with  care 
separate  the  after-birth  from  the  uterus,  peeling  it  off  gradually  with  careful ' 
but  firm  pullingj  thoroughly  cleanse  and  disinfect  by  syringing  with  solution 
of  my  Carbo-Negus  (teaspoonful  to  quart  of  warm  water)  ;  give  about  two 
ounces  of  powdered  ergot,  if  bleeding  much. 

Diarrhoea  after  Calving. — Give  each  night  two  or  three  doses  of  my  No.  I 
Colic  Cure,  at  intervals  of  ten  minutes  in  the  feed,  morning  and  night, 
give  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders. 

Lump  Jaw.— Swelling  upon  the  i?w,  which  left  to  itself  continues  to  grow 
until  it  involves  the  larger  part  of  the  jaw  and  side  of  the  head. 

Treatment.— Apply  mv  Oster-Cocus  Liniment  freely  once  or  twice  a  day, 
do  not  blister  too  abruptly,  so  after  the  first  two  or  three  days,  use  once 
daily,  and  perhaps  omit  for  a  day  or  two,  just  using  it  often  enough  to 
keep  up  a  brisk  circulation. 

Lack  of  strength  before  calving.— Cows  are  sometimes  unable  to  stand  up 
for  a  week  or  two  before  calving,  so  weak  have  they  become  from  low  con- 
dition.   To  prevent,  feed  well,  clean,  rich  food,  adding  a  Renovator  Powder 

110 


D^  A'  ODajniels'  Medicines 

s 

three  times  a  day  (as  soon  as  the  cow  shows  signs  of  weakness)  for  four 
clays;  skip  three  days,  and  repeat  every  other  week  until  calving.  If  yon 
feed  well,  have  good,  clean  surroundings,  and  give  my  Renovator  Powders 
cne  or  two  days  in  a  week  once  a  day  for  a  couple  of  months  before  calving, 
you  will  prevent  lots  of  trouble  at  the  critical  time. 

Milk  Fever:  Dr.  Daniels'  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops  for  Milk  Fever.— I 
offer  this  medicine  as  being  far  superior  to  anything  heretofore  known,  as 
a  specific  for  Milk  Fever  in  Cows.  This  dreaded  disease  has  proved  the 
bane  of  dairymen  throughout  the  world,  as  it  is  very  common,  and  generally 
attacks  the  best  bred  and  greatest  milkers  in  the  herd,  and  with  the  best 
treatment,  if  anyways  severe  at  first,  has  hitherto  proved  fatal.  I  offer  you 
a  remedy  which  I  do  not  claim  to  be  infallible;  I  do  claim  and  will  prove 
to  you  upon  trial,  so  superior  to  all  medicines  hitherto  known,  as  to  astonish 
the  long-experienced  dairyman,  who  has  suffered  the  loss  of  hundreds  and 
perhaps  thousands  of  dollars  from  this  fell  destroyer  of  his  most  valuable 
cows.  I  can  and  will  prove  to  you,  by  the  indisputable  evidence  of  your 
own  experience,  on  your  own  stock,  that  at  last  the  long-looked-for  medicine 
and  treatment  are  at  hand,  and  that  with  small  expense  in  money  or  time  you 
ca*i  bid  defiance  to  this  dread  destroyer. 

Milk  Fever,  Puerperal  Fever,  or  Inflammation  of  the  Womb  is  caused,  by 
injury  to  the  womb  in  calving,  exposure  to  cold  and  chills,  or  retained 
after-birth.  It  is  also  attributed  at  times  to  contagion,  as  it  is  found  more 
liable  to  occur  in  herds  where  one  or  more  cows  have  had  it. 

Symptoms  usually  appear  within  three  days  from  calving.  The  cow  car- 
ries her  head  low.;  does  not  chew  her  cud;  poor  appetite,  and  steps  from 
side  to  side  with  her  hind  feet,  indicating  pain  in  hind  parts.  Breathing  is 
rapid,  eyes  bloodshot  and  staring,  with  a  flow  of  tears.  She  soon  grows 
weak,  and  falls  or  lies  down,  seems  to  think  she  cannot  rise,  and  appears  to 
have  a  general  collapse.  Head  and  horns  hot  to  the  hand.  In  first  stages 
the  bowels  are  sometimes  loose  but  usually  constipated,  and  the  evacuations 
are  darker  than  usual.    The  urine  is  light  colored. 

Treatment. — If  the  cow  is  down,  get  her  body  and  head  into  the  position 
which  cattle  usually  lie;  pack  bedding  around  her,  to  hold  her  in  easy  posi- 
tion, with  head  well  raised.  Give  her  at  once  about  a  quart  of  raw  linseed 
oil ;  put  a  bag  of  broken  ice  on  back  of  her  head,  and  change  it  once  in  two 
or  three  hours.  Feed  carrots,  bran  mashes,  or  any  easily  digested  food.  My 
Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day.  Give  injections  into  the  rectum  of  blood- 
warm  soap-suds  every  hour.  Give  in  ordinary  cases  Dr.  Daniels'  Fever 
Drops,  in  thirty-drop  dose,  well  back  on  the  tongue  or  gullet,  once  in  half 
an  hour,  till  a  marked  improvement  is  noticed.  Later  on  once  an  hour. 
Usually  two  days  will  effect  a  cure.  In  severe  cases,  when  the  cow  will 
make  no  effort  to  rise  and  the  eyes  look  dead  and  glassy,  administer  the 
Fever  Drops  once  in  ten  or  fifteen  minutes  for  two  to  four^  hours,  or  until 
the  cow  appears  quiet  and  as  if  pain  was  relieved.  Then  give  once  in  half 
an  hour,  till  she  eats  and  appears  all  right.  This  treatment  will  effect  a 
cure  in  ninety-five  cases  in  a  hundred,  and* will  never  fail  if  the  case  is 
taken  in  time.  It  is  always  well  to  give  the  Fever  Drops  to  every  cow, 
five  or  six  thirty-drop  doses  each  day  for  three  days  after  calving.    Always 

111 


I^^Dr-  A*  ODaj^ieiIs7  Medicines^^^ 


give  the  cow  plenty  of  gentle  exercise  for  a  month  before  calving.  This 
can  easily  be  done  by  allowing  pen  or  yard  room.  These  precautions  will 
save  millions  of  dollars  to  the  dairymen  of  this  country  each  year.  Feed 
my  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  a  day  for  three  or  four  weeks  before 
calving,  and  for  three  weeks  after  for  tonic  and  strength. 

Pleuro-Pneumonia. — A  contagious  fever,  slow  to  develop;  destroys  life 
quickly  and  is  a  most  disappointing  disease  to  treat. 

Symptoms. — Rising  of  temperature,  102  to  106  degrees,  slight  shivering, 
loss  of  appetite,  dry  cough,  urine  scanty  and  off  color,  dark;  as  time  goes 
on  the  animal  evinces  pain  from  pressure  over  the  lungs,  between  the  ribs, 
back  is  arched,  hind  legs  up  under  the  belly,  hide-bound,  discharge  from 
rose  and  eyes,  either  diarrhoea  or  constipation.  It  is  said  when  both  lungs 
become  diseased  there  is  no  help. 

Treatment. — First  of  all  put  the  animal  into  clean,  airy,  highly  sanitary 
quarters;  cleanse  and  disinfect  surroundings  with  my  Carbo-Negus.  If  con- 
stipated, I  pound  of  Epsom  Salts;  if  not  too  loose  don't  interfere;  give  my 
Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops,  one  dose  every  half  hour  for  two  to  three 
hours,  or  until  fever  is  allayed;  give  my  Renovator  Powders  three  times^a 
day  in  the  feed. 

Stomach  Staggers.— Give  30  drops  Daniels'  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever  Drops 
every  half  hour,  until  six  doses  are  given  ;  plenty  of  milk  and  water  to  drink ; 
mix  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  in  a  quart  of  linseed  oil,  or. a  pound  of 
Epsom  Salts,  and  give  as  a  drench  every  24  hours,  until  bowe7s  act  normal, 
after  which  keep  animal  quiet ;  after  recovery,  feeding  my  Renovator  Pow- 
ders occasionally  will   prevent  its   recurrence. 

Salt.— About  two  ounces  of  salt  given  every  day  to  each  cow  will  increase 
the  yield  of  butter.  Salt  aids  digestion,  and  consequently  turns  more  of  the 
food  into  milk.  Renovator  Powders  fed  twice  daily  3  days  at  a  time  every 
two  weeks  keep  the  digestive  organs  bright. 

Bloody  Flux,  Dysentery,  Scouring  Rot.— -Change  of  diet  at  once;  if  stabled, 
put  on  dry  food,  pint  of  linseed  each  day,  four  to  six  doses  of  sixty  drops 
each  of  Daniels'  No.  1  Colic  Cure;  add  to  the  feed  three  times  a  day  one 
of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders,  and  if  action  of  the  bowels  continues,  give 
quart  of  boiled  milk  with  half  ounce  each  of  powdered  ginger  and  alum.  In 
chronic  cases  feed  mutton  suet,  two  pounds  with  six  quarts  of  milk,  heat 
and  give  warm.     Cod  Liver  Oil,  Eggs  and  Milk  as  a  drench. 

Foul  in  the  Foot. — Attend  to  at  once;  remove  loose  dirt  or  foreign  sub- 
stance, soak  foot  in  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  freely  use  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion,  feed  my  Renovator  Powders  two  or  three  times  daily,  and  repeat 
soaking  and  Wonder  Worker  daily.  It  is  well  to  bind  on  sponge  or  cloth  wet 
in  the  Wonder  Worker. 

Red  Water  and  Black  Water.— Is  caused  probably  by  unhealthy  food.  If 
they  have  been  in  poor,  wet  pastures,  they  should  be  immediately  placed  for 
one  week  in  nasture  drained;  plenty  of  grass.  If  stalled,  feed  plenty  of 
boiled  milk,  corn,  bran  and  sound  hay.  In  the  meal,  corn  or  bran,  you 
should  put  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders  with  each  feed.  Half  dozen  eggs 
beaten  up  in  gallon  of  m:]k  three  or  four  times  a  dav  will  aid  recovery. 

Lfce,  Ticks  and  Other  Vermin. — Wash  with  a  strong    solution  of  Carbo- 

112 


c-  T  -  ■ ^ ■■*• 

Negus.  Feed  my  Renovator  Powders  night  and  morning.  Ticks  should  be 
cut  with  scissors,  and  touched  with  a  brush  or  quill  wet  with  Carbo-Negus. 

Texas  Fever  (Anthrax). — Contagious-  Kill  all  hopelessly  sick  and  bury 
deep.  Spread  quicklime  over  them  and  about  the  ground  and  premises.  Dis- 
infect everything  about  the  stable  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus.  Separate 
sick  from  well.  Mix  twelve  ounces  each  carbolic  acid  and  sodium  bicar- 
bonate with  four  fluid  ounces  of  glycerine.  Give  two  tablespoonfuls  of  this 
mixture  in  quart  of  water  three  times  daily  to  all  suspected  animals,  and 
feed  one  Renovator  Powder  twice  daily.  These  Powders  prepare  the  animal 
to  resist  the  contraction  of  Texas  Fever. 

Hollow  Horn  (Anaemia  of  Cattle). — The  animal  must  be  well  fed,  well 
housed  and  well  cleaned.  The  feed  should  be  given  in  small  quantities  and 
often.  My  Renovator  Powders  should  be  given  morning  and  night  for  one 
or  two  weeks.  It  should  be  given  a  moderate  dose  of  salts  to  clean  out  the 
bowels.  Give  30  drops  of  No.  1  Colic  Cure,  well  back  in  the  throat,  every 
hour  until  six  doses  are  given.  If  sour,  which  is  often  the  case,  wash  with 
solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (one  tablespoonful  to  quart  of  water).  No  boring 
is  needed  after  a  treatment  of  this  kind  one  week,  whiah  shou'd  be  suspended 
and  resumed  the  third  week.  If  lousy  (generally  are),  wash  with  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus   frequently. 

Barrenness  is  either  from  Accident  or  Constitutional.  The  latter  cannot 
be  overcome;  the  former  may  be  caused  from  improper  food,  most  likely 
over-feed;  if  too  fat,  should  not  be  served;  they  are  slow  to  heat,  and 
uncertain,  turn  to  pasture.  Climatic  conditions  sometimes  cause  it ;  lack  of 
exercise,  oil  cakes,  fat  and  sweet  food;  over-milking,  delicate  constitution. 
Don't  have  too  fat  breeders;  just  in  good  condition;  cut  down  feed  and 
give  my  Renovator  Powders  once  or  twice  daily  for  a  while.  Change  the 
bull;    it  may  be  his  fault. 

Tuberculosis. — Well-developed  cases,  incurable. 

Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  prove  one  of  the  surest  preventatives  of  this 
disease,  by  preventing  or  curing  the  colds,  and  by  giving  strength  and 
vitality  to  resist  the  injection. 

To  prevent  constipation  after  calving,  feed  roots  and  soft  foods,  adding 
once  or  twice  a  day  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  for  a  week  or 
so;    not  only  regulates,  but  tones  and  strengthens. 

To  Bring  on  Increase  of  Milk. — Feed  nourishing  food,  mixing  morning  and 
night  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  in  the  feed,  for  a  week;  then  skip  a 
week,  when  repeat  the  doses  of  Powders ;  puts  the  cow  into  fine  feeding  and 
feek'ng  cordition  :   better  digestion,  better  milk  capacity. 

Bloody  Milk.— Foment  the  udder  with  hot  Liniment  Powder  (one  spoon- 
ful to  quart  of  water)  ;  give  a  dose  of  Epsom  salts ;  milk  full,  but  gentle ; 
give  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day  for  two  to  four  weeks. 

Blue  Milk. — Avoid  impure  water  for  drinking,  diseased  grass,  grain  or  hay 
or  filthy  and  foul  odors.  Keep  stable  clean;  give  plenty  of  good  food,  adding 
morning  and  night,  for  a  week  or  so,  one  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders. 

Weeds. — Symptoms,  shivering  fits,  feverish  temperament.  Cow  hangs  her 
head,  refuses  to  eat,  one  or  more  quarters  of  the  udder  becomes  hot,  swollen 
and  hard,  soon  becoming  cold,  insensib1e  and  black;  prompt  treatment  only 
will  save  life.     Give  at  once  30-drop  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever

Drops  every  30  minutes  for  2  or  3  hours ;  then  once  an  hour  for  three  hours 
more.  Then  give  a  drench  composed  of  half  ounce  of  powdered  ginger,  6 
drachms  of  caraway  seeds  and  half  ounce  of  allspice,  mix  in  a  quart  of  warm 
water.  Second  day  give  physic,  Epsom  Salts  (about  a  pound).  Foment 
the  udder  with  solution  of  hot  Liniment  Powder,  hot  as  can  be  borne.  The 
udder  should  be  suspended  by  bandage.  Bran  mashes  twice  a  day,  adding 
one  of  my  Renovator  Powders. 

Garget  in  Cows  (Caked  Udder)  is  a  frequent  and  troublesome  disease,  oc- 
curring more  frequently  in  cows  in  high  condition,  and  at  calving  time,  and 
often  caused  by  careless  mode  of  milking,  leaving  a  quantity  of  milk  in  the 
bag,  which  often  leads  to  this  disease.  Garget  makes  its  appearance  in  one 
or  more  quarters  of  the  udder,  which  becomes  inflamed,  hot,  swollen  and 
hard. 

Treatment. — 'Give  at  once  a  physic,  1  pound  of  Epsom  Salts,  with  half 
ounce  caraway  seeds;  give  a  quart  of  warm  gruel  as  a  drench,  every  30  min- 
utes for  three  hours ;  give  30-drop  doses  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and  Fever 
Drops,  and  once  each  hour  after  until  fever  is  allayed.  Bran  mashes  morn- 
ing and  night,  to  which  add  one  of  my  Renovator  Powders.  Foment  the  ud- 
der with  solution  of  hot  Liniment  Powder  (2  tablespoonfuls  to  a  quart  of 
water),  repeating  often  until  udder  is  softened.  If  treatment  is  delayed  un- 
til pus  forms  it  must  be  opened  at  the  point  of  sack  for  its  escape.  Cleanse 
with  solution  of  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus  and  heal  with  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion. 

The  feed  should  be  dry  and  light;  make  as  little  milk  as  possible;  draw 
the  milk  often,  by  hand  or  tube.  If  much  swollen,  the  udder  should  be  sus- 
pended by  bandage,  easily  applied  and  fastened  over  the  back  of  the  cow. 
Often  a  hop  or  bran  poultice  may  be  put  within  the  bandage  to  soften  the 
bag.  When  hard  bunches  or  swellings  remain,  rub  the  udder  with  Daniels' 
Liniment  Oster-Cocus  oil.  When  milk  is  caked  in  the  udder,  inject  a  satu- 
rated solution  of  bicarbonate  of  potash  in  warm  water,  using  a  small  syringe 
with  a  long  nozzle. 

Sore  Teats. — Wash  clean  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (i  teaspoonful  to 
quart  of  water)  ;    then  apply  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 

Foot  and  Mouth  Disease. — Isolate  infected  cattle  at  once.  Disinfect  the 
ground,  floors  and  premises  with  strong  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (cupful 
to  two  gallons  of  water).  Sprinkle  upon  everything  contaminated.  Make  a 
wood  trough  large  enough  to  stand  an  animal  in,  'about  6  inches  deep ;  put 
into  this  a  strong  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  tablespoonful  or  more  to  quart 
of  water.  Stand  the  animal  therein  for  half  hour  at  a  time,  repeating  two 
or  three  times  daily.  After  each  bath  saturate  sores  with  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion.  Give  30-drop  doses  of  Daniels'  Fever  Drops  every  half  hour 
until  fever  is  allayed.  Bran  mashes  and  soft  foods.  Add  one  of  Daniels' 
Renovator  Powders  to  the  feed  twice  a  day.  Follow  this  for  several  days 
and  the  cow  will  recover.    Wash  the  mouth  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus. 

Hoose,  Husk,  Cold  and  Cough. — Dangerous.  When  your  cow  shows  the  first 
signs  of  a  cold  is  the  time  to  act  (a  stitch  in  time,  etc.).  Give  at  once  a 
physic  of  1  pound  Epsom  Salts,  with  half  ounce  of  Caraway  seeds.  Make 
a  quart  of  gruel,  give  in  a  drench,  give  30  drops  of  my  Cough,  Cold  and 
Fever  Drops  every  30  minutes  for  two  or  three  hours,  and  once  an  hour 
while  fever  lasts.     Bran  mashes  once  or  twice  daily  with  one  of  my  Reno-

vator  Powders ;  if  worms  are  in  the  air  passage  give  every  morning  as 
drench  (2  oz.  of  Oil  of  Turpentine,  1  oz.  Sweet  Spirits  of  Niter,  half  oz,  of 
Laudanum,  4  oz.  of  Linseed  Oil  in  a  pint  of  gruel),  or  place  in  a  close 
room  where  they  can  be  made  to  inhale  the  fumes  of  burning  sulphur,  two 
or  three  times  daily.     Iiouse  in  warm,  dry  quarters. 

Colic— Symptoms :  Animal  restless,  turns  head  to  the  left  side  with  anx- 
ious expression,  discharges  gas.  Give  30  to  60  drops  of  my  No.  1  Colic  Cure 
far  back  in  the  mouth  as  possible,  every  30  minutes,  alternating  with  30  drops 
of  No.  2,  until  6  or  8  doses  of  each  have  been  given.  If  any  fever  give  a 
few  30-drop  doses  of  my  Fever  Drops. 

Calves. — Should  the  cow  fail  in  her  duty  to  clean  the  calf,  shake  a  little 
salt  all  over  the  calf,  which  should  always  be  allowed  to  remain  with  its 
mother  for  a  few  days  for  the  benefit  of  both. 

Navel  String,  if  not  properly  severed,  should  be  tied  with  a  stout  string, 
washed  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  and  my  Wonder  Worker  Lotion  ap- 
plied. If  tumor  forms,  lance,  cleanse,  and  dress  with  Wonder  Worker 
Lotion. 

Scours. — Common  to  calves;  caused  by  mismanagement  and  neglect,  too 
rich  or  too  poor  food.  Give  small  dose  Castor  oil  and  ginger,  say  3  oz.  oil, 
teaspoon  powdered  ginger;  then  give  2  or  3  doses  of  No.  1  Colic  Cure,  20 
drops  to  dose,  at  intervals  of  30  minutes,  a  little  lime  water  with  gentian 
root  tea  (about  2  oz.  of  ,lime  water,  2  oz.  of  tea),  three  times  daily.  Be  sure 
the  mother  has  my  Renovator  Powders  twice  a  day. 

Colic  in  Calves. — Give  20  drops  of  Daniels'  No.  1  Colic  Cure  once  in  10  to 
20  minutes,  until  4  to  6  doses  are  given. 

Wintering  Calves. — They  should  have  dry,  clean  and  warm  quarters.  Do 
not  give  large  quantities  of  ice-cold  water.  Before  drinking  pour  a  kettle  of 
hot  water  in  the  water  trough.  Pens  are  the  best  for  calves  the  first  winter, 
as  it  gives  them  room  to  move  around.  Crushed  oats  with  occasional  dose 
of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders,  fine  hay  and  skim-milk,  makes  good  feed 
and  strong,  healthy  stock- 

The  spring  is  the  best  season  for  calving.  The  cow  should  be  dried  five  to 
Fix  weeks  before  calving;  the  feed  should  not  be  too  rich  or  too  much  dur- 
ing her  time;  the  calf  should  have  only  the  teat  until  four  weeks  oid;  then 
skimmed  milk,  and  so  on. 

Our  new  Milk  Fever  apparatus  for  Milk  Fever  in  cows,  in  conjunction 
with  our  Fever  Drops  and  Renovator  Powders  ought  to  place  every  dairy- 
man beyond  loss  from  this  fatal  disease.  They  cost  so  little  and  ensure  so 
much — no  one  owning  one  cow  even  ought  to  be  without  the  entire  outfit. 
They  constitute  the  best  possible  Insurance  Policy — for  you  won't  meet 
with  loss  if  they  are  properly  used. 

Has  your  Cow  taken  Cold?  Has  she  a  Cough?  Has  she  any  Lung  Affec- 
tions? Does  she  act  Dumpish?  Is  she  in  Good  Condition?  Does  she  give  as 
much  Milk  as  she  ought?  For  any  of  these  troubles  feed  Daniels'  Renovator 
for  a  week  or  >two.  If  not  satisfied  with  the  results  go  back  and  get  your 
money. 

Any    Aborting    among    your   Animals?     Give   a   Renovator    Powder, — 
it  prevents.

Daniels'  Remedies  for  Sheep 

Sheepticks. — Carbo-Negus,  the  safest  and  best 
wash  on  earth.  Does  no  injury  to  sheep  or  wool. 
Dip  the  sheep  in  the  ordinary  way;  keep  them  in 
about  two  minutes.  (Do  not  dip  when  the  sheep 
is  wet.)  Dip  the  lambs  when  the  sheep  are 
shorn,  for  the  ticks  will  leave  the  sheep  for  the 
lamb  after  shearing.  One  gallon  of  Carbo-Negus 
to  jeighty  gallons  of  water. 
Louping-Ill  (Trembling). — Give  three  or  four  io-drop  doses  of  my  No.  i 
Colic  Cure  at  intervals  of  15  minutes,  morning  and  night.  Good  food  and 
pure  water,  with  occasional  weekly  feeds  of  my  Renovator  Powders,  one- 
fourth  dose  to  feed  twice  a  day,  will  prevent  it.  Clip  the  wool  from  the 
back  along  the  spine,  and  rub  into  the  skin  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment. 
Keep  up  a  reasonable  amount  of  irrita'-ion. 

Red  Water,  Symptoms. —  Diarrhoea  or  dysentery,  urine  highly  colored, 
head  hanging,  breathing  labored,  loss  of  the  use  of  hind  quarters. 

Treatment. — House  and  protect  from  the  weather,  give  ten-drop  doses  of 
my  No.  1  Colic  Cure  at  intervals  of  20  minutes  for  two  hours;  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  1-3  of  dose  three  times  daily  in  the  feed,  diet  gruel  of 
oatmeal  and  milk  with  teaspoonful  of  ginger. 

Lambing  Season. — The  Ewe  is  with  lamb  five  months,  and  good  care  at 
this  time  would  save  thousands  of  dollars  every  year  to  the  farmers.  Do 
not  feed  too  heavy  at  this  period,  but  feed  good,  clean,  nourishing  food  to 
sustain  strength,  and  three  times  a  week  give  to  each  Ewe  1-2  regular  dose 
of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders,  once  a  month,  until  two  weeks  before  the 
time,  when  half  tjhe  dose  should  be  given  twice  daily,  and  continued 
twice  daily  for  week  after. 

For  After  Pains,  give  5-drop  doses  of  Daniels'  Colic  Cure  as  far  back  on 
the  roots  of  the  tongue  as  possible  every  30  minutes  for  two  hours.  Pro- 
vide shelter  of  some  sort  for  ewes  and  lambs;  thousands  are  lost  from 
neglect. 

Garget  (Sore  Udder). — Give  four  ounces  Epsom  salts,  and  may  be  re- 
peated. One-quarter  dose  of  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily  in  food.  Bathe 
udder  in  hot  Liniment  Powder;  apply  Wonder  Worker  Lotion. 

Fluke  Disease. — Never  seen  on  dry  lands  or  salt  marshes.  Prevention: 
Drain  land;  this  kills  snails;  salt  pasture  to  kill  embryo.  Slaughter  sheep, 
bury  liver,  intestines,  etc.     Isolate  diseased  sheep. 

Treatment. — Dry,  concentrated  food.  Common  salt  and  ten  to  thirty 
grains  of  sulphate  of  iron  dissolved  in  water  mixed  with  bran,  once  daily; 
also  once  or  twice  daily  give  one-quarter  dose  of  my  Renovator  Powders 
in  feed  for  tonic. 

Hoose. — Prevent  by  drainage  of  pasture.  Salt  liberally  spread  over  pas- 
ture  is  useful.       Destroy   lungs   and   entrails   of   diseased   sheep    instead   of 

118 


feeding  to  anything.  Give  oil  of  turpentine  (two  to  four  drachms)  in  milk 
or  lime  water.  Concentrated  diet  with  one-half  dose  of  my  Renovator 
Powders  twic?  da.V.y  in  food.     Isolate  diseased  sheep. 

Rheumatism. — Cause  is  generally  considered  in  most  cases  due  to  im- 
proper feed  for  Ewe  during  pregnancy,  hence  .said  to  be  hereditary  to  a 
large  extent.  Don't  feed  during  the  last  of  her  time,  clover,  grain,  potatoes, 
mould  root  or  feed  of  any  kind,  drink  only  pure  water,  thus  avoid  rheuma- 
tism in  the  lamb.  Taking  cold  is  also  the  cause  of  this  ill,  which  is  com- 
mon in  early  spring. 

Treatment. — Baths  are  effective,  and  for  this  purpose  have  a  tub  large 
enough  to  practically  submerge  the  sheep.  Fill  with  water  at  about  ioo°, 
put  in  a  teaspoonful  of  Carbo-Negus  to  gallon  of  water,  add  a  cup  of  salt 
and  a  little  mustard,  soak  the  lamb  for  half  an  hour,  dry  and  roll  in  blanket. 
Keep  in  warm  room.  Lambs  showing  signs  of  constipation  should  be  given 
a  laxative  drink,  say  to  pint  of  thin  gruel  add  and  mix  four  ounces  Sul- 
phate of  Magnesia  and  half  ounce  of  powdered  ginger.  Keep  it  warm,  and 
give  a  winegiassful  to  a  lamb  two  weeks  old;    a  little  more  if  older. 

Do  not  put  out  to  pasture  too  soon  or  too  rich  pasture,  as  such  will  often 
cause  a  lamb  to  die  in  twenty-four  hours,  and  are  known  as  Gail  lambs. 
Lambs  at  four  months  often  die  from  '"Heaves"  or  Colic. 

Treatment. — Give  half  ounce  of  Epsom  salts  every  second  day;  give 
5-drop  doses  of  Danie1s'  Colic  Cure  every  ten  minutes  for  3  hours. 
Sometimes  injections  with  stomach  pump,  of  warm  water  with  a  little  gin- 
ger, into  the  stomach  often  brings  relief. 

Lambs  and  Coagulated  Milk. — Whenever  a  thriving  lamb  with  a  healthy 
mother  (having  a  full  bag)  begins  suddenly  to  be  dull,  panting  with  signs 
of  distress,  and  swollen,  look  for  coagulated  milk  in  the  stomach  of  the 
lamb  as  the  cause. 

Treatment. — Give  half  an  ounce  of  magnesia  twice  a  day,  after  which 
give  three  drachms  oi  Epsom  salts  with  a  little  ginger  and  warm  water;  use 
stomach  pump  if  necessary.  One-quarter  dose  of  my  Renovator  Powders 
once  a  day. 

Diarrhoea. — General  cause,  neglect  and  want  of  care.  It  may  be  the 
mothers  milk.  Give  a  purgative  to  the  sheep  of  two  to  three  ounces  Ep- 
som salts,  one-quarter  ounce  ground  caraway  seeds,  thin  gruel,  warm,  and 
enough  to  dissolve  the  salts.  Give  to  the  lamb  Compound  Chalk  Powder, 
with  Opium,  1  drachm;  Gentian,  1  scruple;  Essence  of  Peppermint,  3 
drops;    mix  all  with  thin  starchy  and  give  morning  and  night. 

Lamb  Staggers  caused  by  too  rapid   fattening  for  market. 

Bleed  such  cases  at  once,  give  physic  (Epsom  salts)  ;    reduce  the  feed. 

Sore  Teats. — Wash  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  teaspoonful  to  quart 
of  water,  then  apply  Daniels'  Wonder  Worker  Lotion;  repeating  three 
or  four  times  will  effect  a  cure. 

Gad  Fly. — During  August  and  September,  this  fly  lays  its  eggs  in  the 
nostrils  of  the  sheep;  there  they  hatch  and  destroy  thousands  of  sheep 
every  year.    To  prevent,  spread  soft  tar  on  a  board  or  in  the  trough,  sprinkle 

119 


salt  thereon,   and  the  sheep  will   eat  the   salt,   taking   a   portion   of  the  tar 
also;    this  will  prevent  the  fly  depositing  the  eggs. 
Buy  only  good  sheep;    never  any  profit  in  a  hard  lot  of  sheep. 

To  Fatten. — Sheep  will  fatten  easily  in  winter  on  good  clover  hay — good, 
clean,  clover  hay  cut  in  full  bloom — well  cured — a  good  green  color.  Add- 
ing a  little  oats  of  course  puis  on  flesh.  One-quarter  dose  daily  of  my  Reno- 
vator Powders  for  a  week  at  a  time  will  work  wonders. 

Dry,  well  ventilated  quarters,  feed  regularly,  keep  quiet,  plenty  of  fresh 
water,  and  a  little  salt    occasionally. 

Age  of  Sheep  (to  tell). — Examine  front  teeth,  eight  the  first  year,  all 
small  size ;  second  year  two  centers  fall  out,  being  replaced  by  new  ones  of 
larger  size;  third  year  two  others  fall  out,  one  on  each  side;  these  are  re- 
placed by  two  new  and  larger,  making  four  large  teeth  in  the  center;  fourth 
year  these  large  teeth  are  increased  to  six ;  the  fifth  year  the  other  two 
small  teeth  fall  out  and  we  find  eight  large,  full  teeth;  the  sixth  year  all 
begin  to  show  wear,  while  the  seventh  year  some  fall  out  and  others  be- 
come broken. 

Yellows.— Animal  languid,  shakes  the  head,  nose  almost  on  the  ground 
when  walking,  nose  and  eyes  look  yellow.     Unless  attended  soon  dies. 

Isolate  diseased  animals,  give  1-2  dose  of  my  Renovator  Powders  in  gruel 
or  mix  with  molasses,  twice  or  three  times  a  day,  plenty  of  salt.  Green 
grass  when  possible. 

Take : — 

6  oz.  pow.  hyposulphate  of  Soda. 

I  of  my  Renovator  Powders. 

I  quart  of  water,  dissolve  and  mix. 

Add  1  pound  Extract  of  Culver's  root  and  give  to  each  sheep  one  fluid 
ounce  twice  a  day. 

Foot  Rot. —  The  animal  limps  perhaps  on  one,  two  or  on  all  four  feet, 
soon  unable  to  walk.  This  is  an  infectious  disease.  Isolate  the  diseased. 
Disinfect  the  suroundings,  discover  the  cause  and  obviate  same.  If  nec- 
essary remove  the  diseased  parts  of  the  hoof.  Make  a  strong  solution  of 
my  Carbo-Negus — 2  teaspoon fuls  to  quart  of  water.  Stand  the  foot  or 
feet  therein,  soaking  for  considerable  time,  then  soak  some  lint  in  my  Won- 
der Worker  Lotion  and  bind  on.  Repeat  this  operation  daily.  Feed  for 
strength  and  tone.    Add  1-3  Renovator  to  feed  once  a  day. 

Inflammation  of  the  Eyes. — Animal  keeps  the  lid  nearly  closed,  tears 
run,  evidence  of  pain  when  exposed  to  light. 

Separate  the  afflicted  from  the  flock,  wash  the  eye  with  Daniels'  Eye 
Wash.  Keep  moist  with  cloth  wet  with  a  solution  of  Witch  Hazel,  1-4 
teaspoonful  to  quart  of  water,  bind  the  cloth  over  the  eyes.  A  few  days 
repeating  will  generally  relieve. 

If  catarrh  forms  it  is  incurable. 

Ticks. —  Dip  in  solution  of  Carbo-Negus,  1  gal.  Carbo-Negus  to  80  gals, 
water.  Sure  to  fix  the  ticks.  Won't  hurt  the  sheep.  Repeat  in  a  week  to 
kill  the  new  ones.

Daniels'  Remedies  for  Swine 


The  Stomach  and  digestive  organs  of  swine  much  resemble  those  of  man, 
and  are  acted  upon  much  the  same.  The  purge  for  swine  is  three  to  four 
ounces  of  Epsom  salts,  or  similar  quantity  of  castor  oil,  given  in  a  spoon 
or  bottle.     Hold  the  animal  firmly  by  the  ears. 

To  be  healthy,  swine  should  have  pure  water  and  shade ;  care  in  breed- 
ing and  management  is  of  more  importance  than  medicines.  Simple  dis- 
orders will  exist  and  can  be  treated. 

Hog  Cholera  (Anthrax,  Swine  Plague)  is  contagious ;  indicated  by  signs 
of  ill  health  and  rash  on  the  skin,  etc.  A  most  destructive  disease;  there 
seems  to  be  two  or  three  distinct  conditions  of  this  disease,  some  style  them 
under  that  of  Charbon  Anthrax,  White  Bristles,  Fever — the  most  common 
of  which  may  be  styled^Erysipelatous. 

Symptoms. — Loss  of  "appetite,  dull,  hangs  head,  unwilling  to  move  about. 
Constipated,  cough,  followed  by  eruptions  on  the  skin,  running  from  dark 
red  to  purple  and  to  black.  Seen  on  ears,  throat,  inside  legs  and  breast. 
Discharge  from  nose,  hind  quarters  become  palsied,  diarrhoea,  followed  in 
two  or  three  days  by  death. 

Treatment. — Give  thirty  drops  of  my  Fever  Drops  every  ha1f  hour  for 
two  hours.  Give  one-half  dose  of  my  Renovator  Powders  to  one  hundred 
pounds  of  hog,  put  it  in  molasses  and  spread  on  tongue  or  put  it  in  feed  if 
hog  will  eat.  A  purge  is  desirable  with  Epsom  Salts  (as  above).  Frequently 
sponge  the  eruptions  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus — plenty  of  salt  and 
charcoal  should  be  given  from  time  to  time  in  the  feed.  Twice  daily  sprinkle 
pen,  troughs,  etc.,  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  to  disinfect.  Separate  in- 
fected ihogs  from  the  rest  of  the  herd.  By  feeding  Renovator  Powders,  one- 
half  package  morning  and  night,  for  a  week  at  a  time,*  occasionally,  you  can 
prevent  Hog  Cholera;    better  to  prevent  than  cure. 

Apoplexy. — Usual1y  occurs  in  fat  hogs.  Treatment  at  once.  Place 
healthy  hogs  on  low  diet;  give  purge,  Epsom  salts;  give  one-half  of  one 
of  my  Renovator  Powders  with  molasses  at  once;  give  same  dose  powders 
twice  daily  for  a  week  in  food;  give  injection  for  action  of  bowe's.  If 
down,  pour  cold  water  freely  over  the  animal,  especially  on  the  head,  from 
a  height  of  5  to  10  feet. 

Epilepsy. — Prevent  by  feeding  my  Renovator   Powders   from   one-quarter 

121

<T~ "* ~ 

package  for  pigs  to  one-half  for  hog^s,  twice  daily  at  intervals  of  two  weeks. 
It  makes  good  blood,  and  puts  on  good  flesh. 

Debility:  Falling  off  in  flesh. —  Give  for  feed  a  boiled  d'et  of  bran  meal, 
roots,  etc.,  adding  for  hog  of  two  hundred  pounds  or  more  one-half  dose 
of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  morning  and  night  for  a  week  or  ten  days. 
If  coughing  add  a  few  kernels  of  garlic,  or  a  teaspoonful  of  fir  balsam. 

Constipation. — Renovator  Powders,  twice  daily  in  one-quarter  or  one- 
half  package  doses  in  feed,  prevents  and  cures  Constipation. 

Protrusion  of  the  Rectum. — Prevent  by  feeding  Renovator  Powders,  as 
above. 

Feed. — It  is  a  great  loss  to  fail  to  feed  young  and  sucking  pigs  well; 
larger  growth  results  from  a  given  amount  of  nutriment  at  this  time  than 
later  on.  As  a  rule,  however,  this  act  is  overlooked;  they  of  course  de- 
pend upon  the  sow  for  sustenance.  Often  you  see  pigs  in  large  jitters 
stunted  berore  weaning;  growth  is  thereby  checked.  If  you  are  willing  to 
take  a  little  pains,  you  can  save  money  by  so  doing,  and  give  the  sow  at 
th:s  time  twice  daily  one-half  dose  of  DanieY  Renovator  Powders ;  it 
will  strengthen  and  tone  the  system,  enabling  the  sow  to  get  the  full  bene- 
fit of  the  feed  for  milk  producing.  They  will  not  take  on  Hog  Cholera  or 
other  ailments.    Renovator  is  worth  its  weight  in  gold  for  swine. 

When  clover  is  old  enough,  give  about  three  quarts  of  green  clover  in 
the  feed  each  day.    The  gain  will  be  very  rapid. 

When  buttermilk  and  skim-milk  is  fed  to  pigs  it  is  worth  one-fourth  as 
much  as  corn  meal. 

Plenty  of  good  grass  is  profitable  to  swine ;  it  supplies  animal  heat,  while 
the  extra  food  will  be  used  for  putting  on  flesh. 

The  most  profitable  time  to  kill  pigs  is  when  they  are  from  eight  to  ten 
months  old. 

Provide  the  castrated  pig  with  shady  wallows.  Clear  water  is  an  ex- 
cellent preventative  of  inflammation;    add  a  few   drops  of  Carbo-Negus. 

Sows  should  breed  at  one  year  of  age.  Gestation  period  is  113  days. 
Separate  from  the  rest  of  the  herd  a  week  before  she  is  due,  and  for  two 
or  three  weeks  before  this  time,  give  her  one-half  dose  of  DanieV  Reno- 
vator Powders  in  feed  twice  a  day,  for  tonic  and  strength. 

Vermin. — Wash  and  rub  into  the  skin  strong  solution  (cup  to  quart  of 
water)  Daniels'  Carbo-Negus.  Then  from  leaf  tobacco  make  a  strong  tea, 
mix  therein  a  box  of  Daniels'  Gall-Cura  (white  hot),  rub  well  into  the  skin, 
and  the  next  day  not  one  louse  will  be  found.  Give  1-2  dose  Daniels'  Reno- 
vator Powders  in  feed  morning  and  night  for  tonic,  and  help  put  on  flesh. 

Itching  in  Swine. — Rub  Daniels'  Gall-Cura  on  the  inflamed  spots  three 
or  four  times  a  day,  or  wash  in  solution  of  Carbo-Negus  a  few  times. 

Rupia. — Skin  disease,  usually  in  pigs.  Dose  of  Epsom  salts ;  change 
feed  and  add  1-4  dose  of  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily;  wash  in  solution 
of  Carbo-Negus ;    disinfect  pens  with  strong  Carbo-Negus. 

Ague  Cake  (Splenitis). — One-half  dose  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders 
in  feed  twice  daily;    feed  less  quantity  and  regularly. 

Rheumatism. — Give  Renovator  Powders,  1-2  doses  twice  daily,  for  laxa- 
tive and  regulator.  Rub  the  affected  parts  several  times  daily  with  Oster- 
Cocus. 

122 


s-* *—* 

Mange,  Itch  and  Scab.— Wash  with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus ;  apply 
Mange  Specific,  rub  in  well.  Feed  twice  daily  1-2  package  of  my  Renovator 
Powders  for  one  or  two  weeks.    Repeat  wash  and  salve  daily. 

Catarrh. — Same  in  swine  as  in  other  animals.  Treat  same.  Protect  from 
exposure.  Feed  warm  bran  mashes  with  Renovator  Powders  twice  daily, 
1-2  package  to  feed. 

Trichinae  in  Swine  can  be  prevented  by  using  proper  care.  Clean,  hygienic 
conditions  are  sure  preventatives.  These  conditions  rarely  exist  under 
barns,  or  where  offal  and  decayed  garbage  is  prominent.  Feed  plenty  of 
buttermilk,  sound  grain,  etc. ;  each  month  a  few  doses  of  Daniels'  Renovator 
Powders;    give  a  little  salt  occasionally. 

Sore  Ears. — Wash  with  solu'ion  of  Carbo-Negus  (teaspoonful  to  quart 
of  water)  and  apply  Wonder  Worker  Lotion;  repeating  a  few  times  will 
affect  a  cure. 

Jaundice  in  Swine. — Loss  of  appetite,  with  yellow  tint  to  the  white  of 
the  eye.  Give  1-2  dose  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  in  feed  twice  a  day 
for  week  or  ten  days. 

Red  Eruption. — Red  pustules  on  the  back  and  belly,  sometimes  extending 
to  the  entire  body.  Feed  1-2  doses  of  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  twice 
daily  for  week  or  two.  Give  also  small  dose  of  sulphur  each  night  with  a 
solution  of  Carbo-Negus  (teaspoonful  to  quart  of  water).  Wash  the  body 
or  affected  parts. 

Pigs  should  be  castrated  a  week  or  two  before  they  are  weaned.  Many 
diseases  of  pigs  are  contagious.  The  moment  a  pig  is  noticed  to  be  sick, 
move  to  another  pen,  clean  out  the  pen  and  troughs,  scrape  and  remove  all 
the  decaying,  foul  matter ;  then  sprinkle  the  ground,  pen  and  all  surround- 
ings with  solution  of  Carbo-Negus ;  throw  into  the  pen  new,  dry  earth. 
These  precautions  will  save  you  many  pigs  and  dollars. 

Pigs  should  have  scratching  posts ;  keeps  them  comfortable  and  help's  put 
on  flesh.  A  little  salt,  sulphur,  charcoal,  wood-ashes,  or  bone-dust  should 
be  conveniently  near  for  the  pigs  to  eat  what  they  wish. 

Gestation  Period  for  sow,  sixteen  weeks. 

Pigs  often  suffer  for  want  of  fresh  water.  Have  plenty  of  fresh  water 
handy  for  them  ;    it's  as  good  as  food  when  they  want  it. 

Peas  make  firm,  heavy  pork.     Feed  half  peas  and  half  corn. 

Let  Sucking  Pigs  have  a  trough  separate  from  the  sow,  and  begin  feed- 
ing when  two  or  three  weeks  old. 

During  Pregnancy  feed  moderately  well,  but  not  to  produce  fatness. 
^  As  Farrowing  Approaches  the  food  ought  to  be  semi-liquid.     Costiveness 
iosters    fever      (Renovator    Powders    prevent    costiveness.)      Keep    the    pen 
clean.     Carbo-Negus  does  it. 

Lice.— Destroy  with  my  Carbo-Negus,  teaspoonful  to  quart  of  water, 
clean  the  pen,  rails,  boards  and  everything — your  hog  can't  grow  fat  when 
the  lice  keep  him  busy  growing  thin. 

Coughs  and  Colds.— Give  three  or  four  15-drop  doses  of  my  Cough  and 
tever  Drops  at  intervals  of  half  hour  night  and  morning,  my  Renovator 
Powders  (1-2  dose)  in  the  feed  twice  a  day  for  few  days.  Rub  the  throat 
and  chest  with  my  Oster-Cocus  Liniment. 

123 


*>     lT    '■ ' ' » 

Scouring  in  Pigs. — The  sow  must  have  most  of  the  treatment.  Change 
the  diet,  cleanse  pen  and  surroundings  with  Carbo-Negus  in  solution, 
spoonful  to  quart  of  water,  add  to  the  feed  one-half  dose  of  my  Renovator 
Powders  every  time  she  is  fed.  Oats,  wheat,  barley  and  rice  ground  in 
in  about  equal  quantities  make  a  nice  feed  at  this  time,  a  little  salt,  too,  no 
spoiled  or  musty  corn  or  feed. 

Melt  Swelling. — Loss  of  condition ;  whatever  the  pig  eats  fails  to  do  any 
good ;  dull ;  later  lies  down  always  or  nearly  so  on  one  side,  leans  when 
walking,  cringes  and  bends,  and  sometimes  falls  down  entirely. 

Treatment.— Give  purge,  Epsom  Salts,  lower  diet,  change  it,  add  1-4  dose 
of  my  Renovator  Powders  to  feed  once  or  twice  a  day;  take  one  pound 
each  of  Liverwort  and  Wormwood  leaves,  adding  one  of  my  Renovator 
Powders,  put  into  a  gallon  of  water,  boil  from  20  to  30  minutes,  cool,  and 
give  half  a  pint  daily  to  each  pig  affected.  Keep  everything  clean.  My 
Carbo-Negus  will  do  it.  Don't  allow  the  remains  of  cne  feed  to  He  over 
to  another.     Clean,  clean,  is  the  watchword. 

Many  Druggists  and  dealers  will  endeavor  to  force  substitutes  on  you, 
because  they  can  make  larger  profits  on  them.  Do  not  be  led  into  the  trap 
— just  insist  on  having  Daniels'.  You  can  get  them  if  you  won't  take  other 
and  inferior  goods.  Making  veterinary  medicines  has  been  our  business 
for  thirty  years ;    we  ought  to  know  something  about  it  now. 

Owners  of  Swine  will  find  my  RENOVATOR  POWDERS  and  CARBO- 
NEGUS  the  most  valuable  assistance  to  care,  health  and  fattening  they 
can  buy;  their  cost  paid  many  times  over. 

A  clean  pen  makes  a  fat  hog  and  healthy  pork.  Use  CARBO-NEGUS 
freely.  Much  of  the  disease  of  Swine  is  due  entirely  to  neglect,  bad  man- 
agement, too  many  in  limited  quarters,  bad  air.  Many  people  think  their 
hog  (which  they  are  growing  to  eat  in  their  own  family)  requires  simply 
enough  to  eat,  and  as  dirty  a  place  to  live  as  is  possible  to  give. 

Now,  of  course,  this  is  entirely  wrong.  Swine  require  pure  air  and  clean, 
sanitary  quarters,  as  any  animal.  Bad  air  is  the  cause  of  pulmonary  apo- 
plexy and  pneumonia  affections,  congestion  of  lungs  and  Hog  Cholera, 
hence  it  is  to  your  profit  to  furnish  your  swine  with  ample  space,  well 
housed  in  cold  weather,  but  first  of  all  plenty  of  fresh  air.  They  require 
fresh  air  to  live  the  same  as  mankind. 

My  Renovator  Powders  used  occasionally  will  put  on  flesh,  will  give 
strength  to  the  sow  and  make  pigs  grow.

A  FEW  THINGS 

A  man  will  pay  Two  or  Three  Hundred  Dollars  for  a  horse  and  turn  him  out  to  the 
care  of  a  peifectly  irresponsible  driver  or  caretaker,  without  a  moment's  worry.  Not  so 
with  the  $300  if  it  be  in  his  pocketbook.     Why? 

Some  men  will  buy  any  old  remedy  for  a  sick  horse  when  they  can  always  get  the  best. 
Don't  be  jollied  ! 

Some  men  will  drive  a  valuable  horse  into  the  stable,  wet,  cold  and  exhausted,  throw 
him  some  feed  and  wonder  why  the  horse  is  always  sick  or  lame. 

Some  men  give  the  horse  care  under  these  circumstances;  look  at  him  as  so  much 
money  worth  saving,  rub  and  blanket  him,  give  him  Daniels'  Fever  Drops  or  Renovator 
Powders  and  work  him  next  day. 

Some  men  seem  to  think  the  horse  a  piece  of  furniture,  never  to  be  looked  over,  ex- 
cept when  buying  and  burying.     That's  the  expensive  way  ! 

Some  men  always  look  their  horses  over  every  time  they  are  used  from  "head  to  foot." 
uNo  foot  no  horse."     A  slight  strain  or  sprain  or  bruise  promptly  cared  for  saves  money. 

Some  men  have  a  case  of  Daniels'  Remedies  always  handy.  They  save  money.  Are 
you  wise? 

Some  men  feed  their  horses  from  a  tin  pail  or  any  old  bucket,  hung  by  a  string  over 
the  head,  smothering  the  horse,  causing  heaves,  half  the  feed  goes  on  the  ground,  and 
the  horse  grows  thin.  Why?  There  are  good  feed  bags  for  a  man  who  thinks;  he  uses 
the  best— Why? 

Don't  feed  in  a  nose  bag.     It  is  cruel  and  expensive.     Think  it  over. 

Don't  forget  to  use  Daniels'  Renovator  Powders  for  your  horse.  Two  weeks'  treatment 
for  50c.  and  we  guarantee  to  refund  your  money  if  you  are  not  satisfied  with  results. 

Don't  water  just  before  feeding.     Allow  15  minutes  or  so. 

Don't  water  for  2  hours  or  so  after  feeding. 

Don't  feed  or  water  when  overheated  or  exhausted.  Give  a  handful  of  hay,  allow  to 
cool  off,  water,  and  in  15  minutes  feed. 

Don't  feed  hay  immediately  after  feeding  grain.     Wait  a  couple  of  hours. 

Don't  follow  with  any  hay  in  the  morning,  when  you  feed  grain. 

When  possible  allow  15  minutes'  rest  after  feeding. 

EVERY  OWNER  of  a  ITorse,  Dog  or  Cat  should  make  it  his  business  to  consider 
their  health,  comfort  and  care.     You  insure  your  buildings  and  property  why  not  your
